public UniformRefractiveIndex(Complex refractiveIndex)¶

Constructs a new UniformRefractiveIndex instance. The index of refraction is the same and isotropic everywhere in space.

Parameters:	refractiveIndex – The complex index of refraction.

public Complex getN(double x, double y, double z)¶

Returns the (complex) refractive index at the position (x, y, z). z = 0 corresponds to the plane of the coverslip.

Parameters:	x – The x-position within the sample. y – The y-position within the sample. z – The z-position within the sample.
Returns:	The complex refractive index at the position (x, y, z).
