Sometimes a nonreflective coating is applied to a lens, such as a camera lens. The coating has an index of refraction between theindex of air and the index of the lens. The coating cancels the reflections of one particular wavelength of the incident light. Usually, itcancels green-yellow light (2 = 540.0 nm) in the middle of the visible spectrum.(a) Assuming the light is incident perpendicular to the lens surface, what is the minimum thickness of the coating in terms ofthe wavelength of light in that coating?
