Abstract
The standard elementary theory of the Brewster angle generated by a plane interface separating two homogeneous isotropic media, through which incident and transmitted electromagnetic waves are propagating, is well known. We introduce here a more general inhomogeneous medium for which a Brewster wave and a Brewster angle can be defined. The properties of this wave are investigated, together with a model whose field can be expressed in terms of a special degenerate hypergeometric function. Other angles of incidence also yield zero reflectivity, but these are carefully distinguished from the Brewster angle.
