CHAPTER 2
2.1 Show that for an electromagnetic wave traveling through a dielectric (m1=n1), impinging on the interface
with another, optically less dense dielectric (n2<n1), light of any polarization is totally reflected for incidence
angles larger than θc=sin−1(n2/n1).
Hint: Use equations (2.105) with k2=0.
Solution
w′
tw′′
tcos θ2=0.
The last of these relations dictates that either w′′
t=0 or cos θ2=0 (w′
t=0 is not possible since—from the first
relation—this would imply η0n1sin θ1=0 which is known not to be true).
w′′
t=0:Substituting this into the second relation leads to w′
t=η0n2, and the first leads to n1sin θ1=n2sin θ2.
Since n1>n2this is a legitimate solution only for sin θ1≤(n2/n1), or θ1≤θc=sin−1(n2/n1).

2.3 Find the normal spectral reflectivity at the interface between two absorbing media. [Hint: Use an approach
similar to the one that led to equations (2.89) and (2.90), keeping in mind that all wave vectors will be complex,
but that the wave will be homogeneous in both media, i.e., all components of the wave vectors are colinear
with the surface normal].
2.4 A circularly polarized wave in air is incident upon a smooth dielectric surface (n=1.5) with a direction of

degrees of polarization?

From the definition of Stokes’ parameters the incident wave has degrees of polarization

2.5 A circularly polarized wave in air traveling along the z-axis is incident upon a dielectric surface (n=1.5).
How must the dielectric-air interface be oriented so that the reflected wave is a linearly polarized wave in the
y-z-plane?
