Abstract

This paper generalizes the theory of the interaction of an electromagnetic H wave with a metallic film included between two dielectric media. Two field configurations are considered: symmetric and antisymmetric. Based on such configurations, expressions are obtained for the reflectance, absorptance, and transmittance of an electromagnetic wave through the film. A graphical study of these coefficients is presented.
