Decomposition of a wavefield into its two components when it reaches the exit surface. [{\bf S}_{1}] and [{\bf S}_{2}] are the Poynting vectors of the two wavefields propagating in the crystal belonging to branches 1 and 2 of the dispersion surface, respectively, and interfering at the exit surface.
