A method for obtaining analytical expressions for the energy (intensity) optical coefficients and their envelopes of a film with a linear variation in thickness is proposed. The method is demonstrated for the transmittivity, front and back reflectivities, and front and back absorptivities of a semiconductor absorbing film on a transparent substrate.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
