Abstract
Experimental results on the angular distribution of the light scattere d by a one-dimensional gold-coated randomly rough surface in a conical configuration are presented. Several polarizations are considered for the incident and the detected intensities. The surface profile of the sample constitutes a good approximation to a Gaussian random process with a Gaussian correlation function. Effects related to the phenomeno n of enhanced backscattering are observed. (C) 1996 Optical Society of America
