Propagation of light in stratified media is tackled with the amplitude and phase approach.

What is it about?

The fields all along the trajectory are known in addition to the reflectivity of the whole system. The corrigendum addresses the correct form of the non linear Floquet equation for the field amplitude. This solution is obtained and discussed in: "Solutions to a periodic nonlinear differential equation: nonlinear Floquet theorem", International Journal of applied and computational Mathematics, 3, 4, pp. 3379–3388, (2017)
