Abstract: | Scattering of Electromagnetic Surface and Bulk Waves from Rough Surfaces. Part II. The Indicatrix of Scattering; the Coupling of Surface and Bulk Waves In this paper, we present the calculation of the spectral power density of light scattered from homogenously isotropic and rough surfaces which are influenced by bulk or surface waves. A classification of all possible scattering cases in dependence on the wave types which arise in the regions z > O and z < O is given. The dependence of scattered light on scattering angles for the different possibilities of polarisation variantes (∥ and ?) will be presented. The relationship between the correlation function of roughness and the efficiency of coupling between bulk and surface modes will be discussed and compared with the results of other authors. |
