Resumen
SEGOVIA-CHAVES, Francis Armando; SUESCUN-DIAZ, Daniel y RASERO-CAUSIL, Diego Alejandro. Mitochondria as a multilayer optical system for propagating electromagnetic fields. Entramado [online]. 2016, vol.12, n.2, pp.246-253. ISSN 1900-3803. https://doi.org/10.18041/entramado.2016v12n2.24222.
The article aims to study the propagation of electromagnetic fields through the mitochondria. We present a simplified model of the mitochondrion as a periodic multilayer of alternating refractive indices. Using the transfer matrix method calculates dependence reflectance and transmittance versus wavelength of incident electromagnetic field. Observe the existence of a wavelength region (or prohibited frequency) in which there is no spread of the fields through the system, this corresponds to a maximum reflectance R = 1.
