Abstract

Analytical reflexion coefficients are obtained for horizontally and vertically polarized electromagnetic waves respectively, obliquely incident from below two recently devised models of horizontally stratified isotropic media. It is shown that both models are totally reflecting and the phases of the reflexion coefficients may be expressed in terms of arg Γ(z).
