, is used, the depth of penetration
(
) is the distance at which the radiant power, 
, decreases to one tenth of its incident value, 
. If the Naperian absorption coefficient, 
, is used, the depth of penetration
(
in this case) is the distance at which the radiant power decreases to
of its incident value.
