at g = 1.0, it is just possible to insert it at every interface without altering the pitch of the
index variation. e resulting structure with its sinusoidal or cosinusoidal variation of
index is known as rugate. Such rugate structures exhibit the fundamental reection peak
but lack the higher orders and are much used in applications such as laser protection.
We have already alluded to a useful shorthand notation that helps in specifying
designs where quarter-wave optical thicknesses at λ

are indicated by a capital letter.
