Diffraction of the Electromagnetic Waves in Layered Inhomogeneous Media

Probability distribution of transmission coefficients of plane waves through random stack medium

“…The idea of stacking randomly modulated slabs can be interpreted as a multi-layered approximation [13,14] of continuous media, but which may be directly related to systems with multi-layered structure such as sedimentary basin (e.g., [15][16][17][18]) and optical thin films [19].…”
