SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the Reststrahlen effect, a term derived from German, which refers to the phenomenon of light reflection and absorption in certain materials. Participants clarify that "Restrahlen effect" is a misnomer and a redirect to the correct term. The Reststrahlen effect is documented in various publications, including Wikipedia and Britannica, which provide valuable references for further understanding.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of optical phenomena
  • Familiarity with material science concepts
  • Basic knowledge of light-matter interaction
  • Ability to navigate academic references and bibliographies
NEXT STEPS
  • Research the Reststrahlen effect in optical materials
  • Explore the Wikipedia article on Reststrahlen for comprehensive references
  • Investigate the applications of the Reststrahlen effect in photonics
  • Review academic papers discussing light reflection and absorption
USEFUL FOR

Researchers, students in optics and material science, and professionals in photonics who seek to understand the Reststrahlen effect and its implications in their fields.

I search it on google, books, articles, everyone cite it but no one explain fully what it is. If you can: bibliography please! Thanks a lot!

Do you mean Reststrahlen effect? "Restrahlen effect" is a redirect to this page. As "Rest" and "Strahlen" are german, it might look a bit funny in english, and maybe the second "st" was left out somehow.
If yes, do the wikipedia article (and its references) help?

Yes, in fact in many publication is write "restrahlen" with reststrahlen I find much more. Thanks a lot!
