We study the possibility of bleaching of a dielectric boundary using part-through holes (hollows). The parameters of the hollows are determined on the basis of the well-known theoretical approach, according to which the bleaching effect is possible only if the thickness of the matching layer on the dielectric surface is equal to one-fourth of the wavelength. Using this concept and solving approximately the electromagnetic-field equations, we estimate the parameters of the hollows, such as their diameter and depth, which are necessary for the bleaching effect.
