摘要
The electromagnetic theory, which explains the scattering of light from a rough surface of a metal foil by means of normale surface currents, is extended to the case of arbitrary directions of this currents. This allows to calculate the scattered intensity of p and s polarised light in all directions. It is shown that the excitation of surface plasmons (radiative" and "non radiative") can produce a characteristic maximum in the scattered light. Detailed calculations for silver foils deposited on a quartz hemisphere are presented and compared with experiments. Furthermore the theory is applied to calculate the decrease in the reflection at frequences near the surface plasma frequence Ωs. © 1969 Springer-Verlag."
