Diffraction gratings are components of great interest for their many applications, for instance in integrated optics, holography and spectroscopy.~1 Among the methods introduced for the analysis of diffraction gratings one may recall the integral method,~2 the coupled wave method,~1,3 and the differential method~4. In this paper we will discuss a modal method for the analysis of lamellar surface relief diffraction gratings.
