Abstract

For many applications, reducing the total amount of the light scattered from rough surfaces is a crucial problem. We show that a scattering-reduction effect is obtained by coating rough absorbing surfaces. Numerical results as well as experimental ones are presented. We also study the case of inhomogeneous structures with embedded scatterers.
