A sheet of glass having an index of refraction of 1.46 is to be coated with a film of material having an index of refraction of 1.59 in order that green light with a wavelength of 535 nm (in air) will be preferentially transmitted via constructive interference. (a) What is the minimum thickness of the film that will achieve the result?
