Definition of "refraction" |
the process undertaken by an electromagnetic wave wherein the wave changes direction of propagation as it is incident on the edge of a material. The wave undergoes a “bending” action, sometimes referred to as knife edge refraction, and the “bending” angle is less than 90 degrees. Refraction may also occur as a wave propagates through a media such as the atmosphere. |
