3. Reflection, transmission, absorption

We show here that simple analytical reasoning is possible as soon as the admittances are known. The stacks below are illuminated by a plane wave of amplitude A 0+ via the superstrate. We restrict ourselves to tangential fields, which allows us to use admittance properties.

3.1 Reflection

The reflection coefficient r 0 in amplitude of a stack illuminated on the superstrate side is defined for each polarization as :
