Abstract
Moisture adsorption patches in magnesium-fluoride spacer layers of metal-dielectric-metal interference filters deposited obliquely are known to possess elliptical symmetry. The spatial distribution of light scattered from these patches at normal incidence is shown to exhibit the same elliptical symmetry with the major and minor axes interchanged.This publication has 12 references indexed in Scilit:
