... Thin film interference occurs when light incident on a thin film is partially reflected at the top surface and partially transmitted through the film. The transmitted ray reflects off the bottom of the film and travels up and through the top of the film. The two reflected rays have a path length dif ...

Electromagnetic radiation – the nature of light
... Electromagnetic radiation (sometimes abbreviated EMR) takes the form of self-propagating waves in a vacuum or in matter. EM radiation has an electric and magnetic field component which oscillate in phase perpendicular to each other and to the direction of energy propagation. ...
