A surface plasmon polariton (SPP) is an electromagnetic excitation existing on the surface of
a good metal. It is an intrinsically two-dimensional excitation whose electromagnetic field …

This review is intended to provide a critical and up-to-date survey of the analytical
approximate methods that are encountered in scattering from random rough surfaces. The …

The subject of this book is the Casimir effect, a manifestation of zero-point oscillations of the
quantum vacuum resulting in forces acting between closely spaced bodies. For the benefit of …

The scattering of x rays and neutrons from rough surfaces is calculated. It is split into
specular reflection and diffuse scattering terms. These are calculated in the first Born …

This review presents a unified view on the problem of Anderson localization in one-
dimensional weakly disordered systems with short-range and long-range statistical …

We present a calculation routine for the angular and spectral dependence of scattered light
after transmission through textured interfaces. Based on a modified Rayleigh–Sommerfeld …

We calculate the resonant scattering of p-polarized light incident on a randomly rough
grating ruled on a medium characterized by a dielectric constant ε (ω)= ε 1 (ω)+ i ε 2 (ω) …

No surface is perfectly flat at every length scale. However, all natural and man-made
surfaces show some degree of roughness. Therefore, it is imperative to know how surface …

The paper reports a theoretical study of scattering of electrons by edges in graphene and its
effect on Raman scattering. First, we discuss effective models for translationally invariant …

This monograph attempts to present a comprehensive review of the current applications and
characteristics of photon-in, photon-out optical techniques used to characterize organic thin …
