Diffraction Efficiency of a Grating as a Function of the State of Polarization of Incident Light

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

For light of a given wavelength incident on a grating in an arbitrary orientation the distribution of light among the various (reflected and/or transmitted) diffracted orders depends on the incident wave polarization. Such polarization effects of gratings, first discovered by Fraunhofer1, require a full electromagnetic approach2 for their explanation.
