Code 2.3: Reflection and Transmission at Planar Boundary

Code Name: ReflTransm_PlanarBoundary.m

Description: Code computes reflection by and transmission across a planar boundary between any two homogeneous media.

Input Variables:

ε₁ = ε₁ ^' - jε₁ ^'':	Dielectric constant of medium 1 (unitless)
ε₂ = ε₂ ^' - jε₂ ^'':	Dielectric constant of medium 2 (unitless)
Θ₁:	Incidence angle in medium 1 upon medium 2 (degrees)

Output Products:

ρ:	Reflection coefficient (unitless)
Γ:	Reflectivity (unitless)
τ:	Transmission coefficient (unitless)
Τ:	Transmissivity (unitless)
Plot:	Any of the above four quantities versus Θ₁
