A major challenge of many diffraction calculations, using some form of the Rayleigh-Sommerfeld formulas, is the integration of a highly oscillatory integrand. Here we derive a potentially useful alternative form of solution to the Helmholtz…

We study time-harmonic scattering by a periodic array of penetrable, high-contrast obstacles with small period, confined to a bounded Lipschitz domain. The strong contrast between the obstacles and the background induces subwavelength…

We present a time domain method to solve quantum scattering by an arbitrary potential of finite range. The scattering wave function in full space can be obtained, including the near field, the mid field (i.e. Fresnel region) and the far…

Scattering of time-harmonic plane wave by two parallel semi-infinite rows, but with staggered edges, is considered on square lattice. The condition imposed on the semi-infinite rows is a discrete analogue of Neumann boundary condition. A…
