where <math> n _1 </math> is the index of refraction for air and <math> n _2 </math> is the index of refraction for diamond. We can look these up and calculate R:
   −
R = 0.17189
+
<math>R = 0.17189</math>
 +
 
 +
We also need the coefficient of transmission T. However, because <math> R + T = 1 </math>, calculation is easy.
 +
 
 +
<math>T = 0.82811</math>
 +
 
 +
This tells us that about 83% of the laser will be transmitted through the diamond at each reflection. This tells us <math> C _1 </math>:

<math> C _1 = 0.17189 </math>
