Polarization conversion from highly conducting, asymmetric trapezoidal gratings

The differences in the curves of the zeroth-order cross-polarization reflection coefficients (p→s and s→p) versus angle of incidence have remarkable potential for application in scatterometry because, if the differences are larger than the measurement error, they could contribute to a reliable nonde...
