4. In your own words, describe what an evanescent wave is and how it can be generated. Then, pick a specific angle of incidence for air (n = 1)/glass (n1 = 1.5) interface that can lead to an evanescent wave and calculate the penetration depth for your chosen angle for 600 nm monochromatic plane wave. Include a diagram that shows incident and reflected beams and the direction in which the evanescent wave decays. 4. In your own words, describe what an evanescent wave is and how it can be generated.
