Fresnel Reflection of Diffusely Incident Light

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The reflectances for diffusely incident light on the plane boundary between two non-conducting media are connected by the relation:

n2(1-R)=n2(1-R),

where R and R′ are the reflectances for the light, coming from media, having refractive indices n and n′, respectively. This relation may be considered as a particular case of one general photometric invariant.
