Extremely asymmetrical scattering of slab modes in periodic Bragg arrays

Abstract

The steady-state extremely asymmetrical scattering of electromagnetic modes in a slab with a periodically corrugated boundary is analyzed theoretically. A new approach, based on allowance for the diffractional divergence of a scattered wave, is used with the approximation of slowly varying amplitudes and a Fourier analysis. The structure of the incident and scattered waves inside and outside the array is determined. The amplitudes of the scattered waves are found to be much larger than the amplitude of the incident wave. The typical time of relaxation to steady-state scattering is found to depend on the distance from the array boundary through which the incident wave enters the array. Conditions of applicability of the results obtained are also presented.
