Abstract

We calculate the short-range contributions C(1)C^{(1)} and C(10)C^{(10)} to the angular intensity correlation function for the scattering of s-polarized light from a one-dimensional random interface between two dielectric media. The calculations are carried out on the basis of a new approach that separates out explicitly the contributions C(1)C^{(1)} a nd C(10)C^{(10)} to the angular intensity correlation function. The contribution C(1)C^{(1)} displays peaks associated with the memory effect and the reciprocal memory effect. In the case of a dielectric-dielectric interface, which does not support surface electromagnetic surface waves, these peaks arise from the co herent interference of multiply-scattered lateral waves supported by the in terface. The contribution C(10)C^{(10)} is a structureless function of its arguments.
