Cross section of light incident on the coated lens.
A camera lens made of glass with index of refraction \(n_g\) is coated with a thin transparent film of index of refraction \(n_f\), where \(1 < n_f < n_g\). Monochromatic light with wavelength \(\lambda_0\) in air shines normally onto the coated lens. Which of the following expressions represents the minimum non-zero thickness \(t\) of the coating that minimizes reflection of this light?
