Reflectivity
Portion of the electromagnetic radiations that bounces back from surface
of a material can be envisaged by using the reflectivity relation which
is expressed as:
\begin{equation}
\text{R\ }\left(\omega\right)\ =\ \ \ \ \ \left|\frac{\sqrt{\varepsilon\left(\omega\right)}\ \ -1}{\sqrt{\varepsilon\left(\omega\right)}+1}\right|^{2}\nonumber \\
\end{equation}From figure 13, static value of the reflectivity R(0) is 0.05. It
increases slowly upto 5 eV, but then upsurges gradually and attains its
maximum value of 0.89 at photonic energy of 12.9 eV. It is observed that
the reflectivity is maximum in the energy region where absorption was
found to reveal decreasing trend.
