Boundary conditions for diffusion of light

Abstract: In connection with recent work on remote imaging of random media by light, a straightforward generalization of the proper diffusion boundary conditions is presented that takes into account Fresnel reflection. The Milne problem at exterior boundaries is solved for various values of index of refraction, absorption, and scattering anisotropy parameters to yield extrapolated end points and extrapolation distances. A generalized interface condition is derived to replace the usual condition of continuity of intensit… Show more

“…In general, a rigorous theory would require using the extrapolation lengths z n calculated with account for the refractive index mismatch at the sample surfaces [60][61][62][63], or deduced from the angular distribution of diffusely transmitted light [64]. For our purposes, however, it is sufficient to know that z n ∼ ℓ * n , since the actual values of z n are of no importance in the limit of α n l * n ≪ 1 and l * n /L n ≪ 1 that we apply in the following.…”
