7. Link with planar optics
This article concludes with an analogy between the free-space resonances observed in total reflection and the propagation modes characteristic of guided optics.
7.1 Propagation modes
So far we've dealt with the free-space case where the source is at infinity in the superstrate. The characteristic of this free-space configuration is given by :
