Abstract :
Through numerical simulations, some rules among the BSW characteristic information can be obtained. This paper points out that the narrowest reflectance dip, the maximum GH shift, the maximum penetration depth are obtained when the resonant angles close to the critical angle. And at that position the sensitivity is higher.
