Abstract

The diffuse scattering of p-polarized light from a one-dimensional, randomly rough dielectric film deposited on a planar, perfectly conducting surface is studied by means of small-amplitude perturbation theory. The dielectric constant ε_d and the thickness d of the dielectric film are chosen in such a way that in the absence of roughness the scattering system supports N (≥ 2) guided modes whose wavenumbers are q ₁ (ω), …, q _N(ω) at the frequency ω of the light incident at an angle θ_o. We investigate the occurrence of satellite peaks, in addition to the enhanced back-scattering peak, in the angular distribution of the intensity of the diffusely scattered light, at angles θ_s(n, m) given by sin θ_s(n, m)= − sin θ₀± (c/ω) [Q_n(ω) − q_m(ω)] for n, m=1, …, N(n ≠ m). These satellite peaks are multiple-scattering effects due to degenerate timereversal symmetry.
