TL;DR: Symmetrical three-layer thin-film combinations are described in this paper, which eliminate the difference in phase shift on reflection, of the S and P components of light incident beyond the critical angle.
Abstract: Symmetrical three-layer thin-film combinations are described which eliminate the difference in phase shift on reflection, of the S and P components of light incident beyond the critical angle. These three-layer combinations have low Herpin equivalent indices, but high enough material indices so that the critical angle is not exceeded until the final interface. Phase compensation is achieved at greater angles of incidence than those which can be compensated by single-layer films.

TL;DR: A digital electrooptic light deflector is described whose deflection elements are an isotropic plate and an optically birefringent plate immersed in a refractive index matching oil, suited for large deflections and a broad band of wavelengths.
Abstract: A digital electrooptic light deflector is described whose deflection elements are an isotropic plate and an optically birefringent plate immersed in a refractive index matching oil. Total internal reflection or complete transmission takes place at the birefringent plate according to the linear polarization state of the light beam. The deflector is suited for large deflections and a broad band of wavelengths.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that the accuracy of the Kravets method in this range of k values can be increased considerably by choosing optical media with refractive indices relatively close to the refractive index (outside the absorption band) of the system under investigation.
Abstract: The possibility of using the method of frustrated total internal reflection (the two-media method) to determine the optical constants n and k in the value ranges 1. 3
