Abstract
The Bragg diffraction of waves in one-dimensional doubly periodic medi a is analyzed by means of Kogelnik's coupled-waves technique. The spec trum problem and the problem of reflection from a half-space and from a layer are considered. It is shown that a devil's-staircase type of s pectrum causes characteristic peaks and valleys in the frequency depen dence of the reflection coefficient.
