14. -1, the phase change is small [Palik, Handbook of Optical Constants of Solids II (Academic, San Diego, CA, 1991), p. 570]. For ℏω = 2.0 eV the values are 0.2 and 6 μm, respectively.
15. Typically, a phase-independent background signal is also induced with a magnitude between a few % and 100% of that of the modulated signal depending on the Ohmic quality of the electrodes.
