class Shadowed_Facet_BRDF_Model
The class Shadowed_Facet_BRDF_Model
implements the facet scattering model with shadow
functions. Note: this class only implements the polarized
part of the scattering function; a Lambertian contribution
must be added to the scattering function to account for
multiply scattered light. The shadow function is supplied
using the abstract class Shadow_Function.

Description |
Default |
lambda |
double |
Wavelength of the light
in vacuum [µm].
(Inherited from BRDF_Model.) |
0.532 |
type |
int |
Indicates whether the light is incident from above the
substrate or from within the substrate and whether the
scattering is evaluated in reflection or transmission.
The choices are:
0 : Light is incident from the above the substrate, and scattering is evaluated in reflection.
1 : Light is incident from the above the substrate, and scattering is evaluated in transmission.
2 : Light is incident from the within the substrate, and scattering is evaluated in reflection.
3 : Light is incident from the within the substrate, and scattering is evaluated in transmission.
For 1, 2, and 3, the substrate must be non-absorbing.
(Inherited from BRDF_Model). |

substrate |
dielectric_function |
The
optical constants of the substrate, expressed as a
complex number (n,k) or, optionally, as a function of
wavelength.

Slope_Distribution_Function |
Function
describing the isotropic two-dimensional distribution
of surface slopes.
(Inherited from Facet_BRDF_Model.) |
Exponential_Slope_Distribution_Function |
stack |
StackModel_Ptr |
Description of any stack
of films deposited on the substrate.The films are assumed to be conformal and of
total thickness much less than the horizontal scale of
the roughness.
