Consider an unpolarized light beam hitting the surface of an isotropic glass with n = 1,5
at right angles (a = 0o). Hint: to avoid 0/0 situations consider small a and b with cosa, b = 1. | ||
Derive the simplified Fresnel equations as given in the script for a = 0o | ||
How much of the light will be reflected? | ||
What is the phase relation between incoming, reflected and transmitted light? | ||
How does the beam leave the crystal (Intensity and polarization) | ||
Now consider these questions for some polarization of the incoming light. | ||
