How to understand produce optical standing wave by mirror reflecting with half-wave loss
Considering the incident optical wave $E_i=e^{ikx}$ and reflect optical wave $E_r=e^{-ikx+i\pi}$,where $\pi$ corresponding the half wave loss.The superposition of incident wave and reflect wave is $E=...

Optical lattices - spin
I know different potentials can be realised with spin dependent optical lattices.
My question is, how do the optical lattices become spin dependent?
I cannot find a good explanation on the literature,...

Reduced absorption coefficient question
I came across a paper that reads
It is noteworthy that for a sample without lateral light propagation in the material, i.e. [reduced scattering] $\mu_s' = \infty$ and [absorption] $\mu_a=0$, ...
