Abstract
Anomalous optical properties of amorphous multilayers have been unders tood by the classical localization of Light propagation. Dependence of anomalous optical properties on incident angle are studied in this re port by experiments following the prediction by simulation. Anomalous reflection peaks and dips for p-waves converge to zero with the increa se of incident angle to 60 degrees, consistent with simulation. Disapp earance of anomalous reflection peaks and dips for p-waves is explaine d by the delocalization of light propagation for p-waves at the extend ed Brewster angle for optically absorbent materials.
