Electromagnetic diffraction of light focused through a planar interface between materials of mismatched refractive indices: an integral representation
Abstract
The diffraction of electromagnetic waves for light focused by a high numerical aperture lens from a first material into a second material is treated. The second material has a different refractive index from that of the first material and introduces spherical aberration. We solve the diffraction problem for the case of a planar interface between two isotropic and homogeneous materials with this interface perpendicular to the optical axis. The solution is obtained in a rigorous mathematical manner, and it satisfies the homogeneous wave equation. The electric and magnetic strength vectors are determined in the second material. The solution is in a simple form that can be readily used for numerical computation. A physical interpretation of the results is given, and the paraxial approximation of the solution is derived.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
