Oblique incidence with s-polarized light To the best of our knowledge, the momentum of light at oblique incidence has not been discussed previously. This is an extremely important case, since it reveals the existence of a lateral radiation pressure at the edges of the beam within a dielectric medium; consistency with the results of Section 4 simply demands the existence of such lateral pressures. We analyze the case of s-polarization here, leaving a discussion of p-polarized light at oblique incidence for the next section. The two cases turn out to be fundamentally different, although both retain the expression for momentum density derived in the case of normal incidence Figure 3 shows the case of oblique incidence with s-polarized light at the interface between the free-space and a dielectric medium. Again, we assume that the dielectric constant E is complex, allowing it to approach a real number only after calculating the total force by ntegrating through the thickness of the medium.

This is an extremely important case, since it reveals the existence of a lateral radiation pressure at the edges of the beam within a dielectric medium; consistency with the results of Section 4 simply demands the existence of such lateral pressures. We analyze the case of s-polarization here, leaving a discussion of p-polarized light at oblique incidence for the next section. The two cases turn out to be fundamentally different, although both retain the expression for momentum density derived in the case of normal incidence. Figure 3 shows the case of oblique incidence with s-polarized light at the interface between the free-space and a dielectric medium. Again, we assume that the dielectric constant ε is complex, allowing it to approach a real number only after calculating the total force by integrating through the thickness of the medium. Inside the medium, the E- and H-field distributions are Et y (x, z) = (1 + rs)Eo exp[i2π(x sinθ + z√ε − sin2 θ )/λo] (5a) Ht x (x, z) = √ε − sin2 θ Et y (x, z)/Zo (5b) Ht z (x, z) = −sinθ Et y (x, z)/Zo (5c) Here rs = (cosθ − √ε – sin2 θ ) / (cosθ + √ε – sin2 θ ) is the Fresnel reflection coefficient for s￾light. Since there are no free charges inside the medium (nor on its surface), the only relevant force here is the magnetic Lorentz force on the dipolar current density Jy(x, z) = −iω εo(ε − 1)Et y (x, z). Following the same procedure as before, we find the net force components along the x- and z-axes to be Fig. 3. Obliquely incident s-polarized plane wave arrives at the surface of a semi-infinite medium of (complex) dielectric constant ε. The Fresnel reflection coefficient is denoted by rs.
