Transition of the scalar field at a refracting surface in the generalized Kirchhoff diffraction theory

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We propose a new method for the analysis of light propagation through thick phase elements of homogeneous refractive index. The Laue equation is shown to be a generalization of Snell’s law of refraction, yielding correct amplitude and phase changes at a single refracting surface. The application to blazed phase gratings is outlined.
