Transmission and diffraction properties of a narrow slit in ideal metal

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

By solving Maxwell equations with the ideal-metal boundary conditions in the TM case, we have fully described the transmission and diffraction properties of a single slit regardless of its width. Efficiencies of the main transformation processes -- transmission, diffraction, and reflection -- are analyzed in the sub-to-few-wavelength range showing a number of sharp fundamental features. Close links with the case of real metal are considered.
