A rigorous method for solving the problems of diffraction of monochromatic electromagnetic waves by periodic structures

  • Published:
Radiophysics and Quantum Electronics Aims and scope

We present a rigorous method for solving the problems of diffraction of monochromatic electromagnetic waves on periodic structures of many types. The method is based on transformation of the Helmholtz equation and the boundary conditions to a certain system of integral equations and a subsequent rigorous solution of this system.
