Abstract:

A rigorous analysis of diffraction by rectangularly profiled, dielectric gratings is presented. An analytical solu- tion is obtained for the total electromagnetic field. The approach presented can readily be extended to computa- tions for metallic gratings and arbitrarily shaped surface-relief gratings.
