20. In these notations, the first and second subscripts indicate the output and input signal polarizations, respectively. For example, Txy = Ext / Eyi, where Exi is the input y -polarized electric field and Ext is the transmitted x -polarized electric field.
21. Similarly, T++ = E+t / E+i, where E+i is the input RCP electric field and E+t is the transmitted RCP electric field. R-+ = E-r / E+i, where E-r is the reflected LCP electric field. Note that the RCP/LCP waves become LCP/RCP after reflection.
