P. Gay-balmaz et Ojf. Martin, Validity domain and limitation of non-retarded Green's tensor for electromagnetic scattering at surfaces, OPT COMMUN, 184(1-4), 2000, pp. 37-47
This work gives a detailed derivation of the non-retarded dyadic Green's te
nsor associated with surfaces in the quasistatic approximation. The derivat
ion is made from a rigorous model where the dyadic is expressed as Sommerfe
ld integrals. We then assess the domain where this approximation can be use
d for scattering calculations on surfaces by comparing rigorous and non-ret
arded solutions. Implications of this work for scattering calculations in n
ear-field optics are finally discussed. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All
