Abstract :
We consider light scattering from a 1D photonic crystal when total internal reflection occurs inside the crystal. This can occur if the refractive index of the incident medium exceeds that encountered somewhere in the crystal. Examples include binary, sawtooth, and rugate crystals. Both TE (s) and TM (p) polarized light are treated.
