A ray of light being refracted through a glass slab. In optics, the refractive index (or refraction index) of an optical medium is a dimensionless number that gives the indication of the light bending ability of that medium. Refraction of a light ray. The refractive index determines how much the path of light is bent, or refracted, when ...
The light ray now reflects twice: once from the surface between air and the thin layer, and once from the layer-to-glass interface. From the equation above and the known refractive indices, reflectivities for both interfaces can be calculated, denoted R 01 and R 1S respectively.

The different electron states which exist in an atom are usually described by atomic orbital notation, as is used in chemistry and general physics. However, X-ray science has special terminology to describe the transition of electrons from upper to lower energy levels: traditional Siegbahn notation, or alternatively, simplified X-ray notation.
