Anti-scattering effect analyzed with an exact theory of light scattering from rough multilayers
First-order theories of light scattering previously revealed the existence of anti-scattering effects in optical multilayers. Here we present an exact electromagnetic theory that is able to complete the scattering analysis when first-order scattering is cancelled. The theory is valid for arbitrary r...

| Summary: | First-order theories of light scattering previously revealed the existence of anti-scattering effects in optical multilayers. Here we present an exact electromagnetic theory that is able to complete the scattering analysis when first-order scattering is cancelled. The theory is valid for arbitrary rough multilayers. |
