24. At first glance this may be surprising, since we always assumed the rays to be confined by total internal reflection, which should mean. However, owing to the curved surface, the energy confinement is not perfect, but there is a so-called evanescent leakage. Consequently the energy loss-although small-is not zero.

26. The fact that the transmission coefficient is complex in the case of total reflection indicates the fact that the evanescent field is phase shifted with respect to the incident wave. The phase shift is half as large as that of the reflected wave.
