4 Reflection & Phase Shifts Upon reflection from a bounary between two transparent materials, the phase of the reflecte light may change. Reflecte Reflecte Incient n 1 Incient n 1 n 2 n 2 Refracte Refracte If n 1 > n 2 no phase change upon reflection Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slie 4 If n 1 < n 2 180º phase change upon reflection This is like the wave went an extra l/2; =1/2
