Abstract:
This volume presents up-to-date surveys of many aspects of rough surface scattering that are relevant to the scattering of electromagnetic waves from surfaces with nanoscale roughness. Both the direct and inverse scattering problems are considered, perturbative and computational approaches to their solution are described, and experimental methods and results are discussed.
