Waves close wavesVibrations that transfer energy from place to place without the transference of matter. - including sound and light - can be reflected at the boundary between two different materials.

A light ray is traveling in a transparent material of refractive index 1.51 at an angle of incidence of 38 degrees and approaches a second material of refractive index 1.46. Solve for (a) the angle of ...

TIRF is a microscopy technique that is used to image fluorescent molecules, such as green fluorescent protein (GFP) and fluorochromes, in liquids that are adjacent to a solid with a high refractive ...

One of the major types of materials analyzed using optical spectroscopy is thin films. Unlike some thin films that are self-supporting, ultra thin films are deposited on a substrate. These ultra thin ...
