In our model of the diamond surface, Huygen's principle can be used to determine the forward distance from the surface when the reflected light will no longer contain a ''valid'' image of the surface.  Using the diagram at right, [[Image:ResDiagram1.jpg|thumb|Surface Schematic]] and some knowledge of the experimental setup, a rought estimate for the forward distance ''L'' can be calculated using a small angle approximation for the angle.  Using the the diamond surface is about <math>5 \times 10^{-3} m</math> and the thickness is <math>5 \times 10^{-6} m</math>, the forward distance for image loss can then be deduced to be 5m.  Since this is much longer than the feature length.  Our experimental setup can be considered effective.
