The smallness of the critical angle c for diamond means


The smallness of the critical angle ?c for diamond means that light is easily "trapped" within a diamond and eventually emerges from the many cut faces. This makes a diamond more brilliant than stones with smaller n and larger ?c. Traveling inside a diamond, a light ray is incident on the interface between diamond and air. What is the critical angle for total internal reflection? The refraction index for diamond
is 2.24.
