Abstract

We present a method for generating numerically a one-dimensional random surface, defined by the equation x3=\zxx_3 = \zx, that suppresses single-scattering processes in the scattering of light from it within a specified range of scattering angles. Rigorous numerical calculations of the scattering of light from surfaces generated by this approach show that the single-scattering contribution to the mean scattered intensity is indeed suppressed within that range of angles.
