    "abstract": "Using a TE/TM decomposition for an angular plane-wave spectrum of free random\nelectromagnetic waves and matched boundary conditions, we derive the\nprobability density function for the energy density of the vector electric\nfield in the presence of a semi-infinite isotropic medium. The theoretical\nanalysis is illustrated with calculations and results for good electric\nconductors and for a lossless dielectric half-space. The influence of the\npermittivity and conductivity on the intensity, random polarization,\nstatistical distribution and standard deviation of the field is investigated,\nboth for incident plus reflected fields and for refracted fields. External\nrefraction is found to result in compression of the fluctuations of the random\nfield.",
