It is now well understood and experimentally verified that light travels more slowly through materials than through empty space. Air is mostly empty space, so the slowing down of light in air is very small and can be ignored in many cases. The index of refraction of a material is defined as follows: The subject of this chapter is the reflection and refraction of light—or electromagnetic waves in general—at surfaces.
