Description

Calculate surface emissivity of a specular surface.

Arguments and Return Values

Arguments: The real and imaginary optical constants (single value or vectors) and an emission angle.

Return Value: An output value or spectrum.

Usage

Syntax: fresnel(real_index, imaginary_index, emission)

real_index: array containing the real indices of refraction

imaginary_index: array containing imaginary indices of refraction

emission: viewing emission angle (degrees)
