Method of Equivalent Currents for the Problem of Reflection of Polarized Radiation from Inhomogeneous Magnetic Surface Structures

摘要

The problem of the reflection of polarized light from the “inhomogeneous layer–substrate” system is considered for the case when the inhomogeneity of the surface layer is governed by variable permittivity and permeability. A new technique is proposed for solving this type of problem that uses the concepts of equivalent and cross-equivalent electric and magnetic currents. The results obtained are discussed.
