This video is useful in understanding of Stokes Relations but not where they are usedsophiecentaur said:
Yes. It's not in depth but I can't see that Stokes actually contradicts the result of continuity of fields across the boundary.tanaygupta2000 said:
True. But it clashes with what I have studied in Interference in Dielectric Films :sophiecentaur said:
We can't argue with what you've learned about dielectric films. (I assume you were getting the right story!) so I guess you need to look at what it actually implied by this time reversal notion with rays. Time reversing involves two incident beams, which need to be the same as the emerging beams. Could that be what you are ignoring when you reckon you've found a flaw? My problem is that it all seems OK to me - but that could just be because I haven't thought deeply enough about it.tanaygupta2000 said:

I can read it all, afaics. Try a different browser, perhaps. I used Safari on the latest OS X.tanaygupta2000 said:
Phase change on reflection is the phenomenon where the phase of a wave changes when it reflects off of a boundary between two different materials.
The change in phase is caused by the change in the speed of the wave as it travels from one material to another. This change in speed is due to the difference in the optical properties of the two materials, such as their refractive indices.
Phase change on reflection can cause objects to appear differently due to the change in the wavelength of the reflected light. This can lead to changes in color, brightness, and even the visibility of certain features on the object.
Yes, phase change on reflection can be controlled by manipulating the properties of the materials involved. For example, using materials with similar refractive indices can minimize the phase change, while using materials with large differences in refractive indices can increase the phase change.
Phase change on reflection is used in a variety of everyday applications, such as in mirrors, lenses, and even in the reflective coating on glasses. It is also utilized in technologies such as radar and sonar, where it helps to accurately detect and locate objects.
