摘要
An important property of electromagnetic waves, which has not been clearly formulated in scientific and educational literature until now, is derived from the Airy formulas: the phase difference between waves reflected and transmitted through a dielectric stab enclosed between optically identical media is equal to pi /2 irrespective of optical parameters of the slab and the enclosing media. wavelength and polarization.
