Plasmon resonances, anomalous transparency, and reflectionless absorption in overdense plasmas

Abstract

The structure of the surface and standing wave resonances and their coupling in the configuration of the overdense plasma slab with a single diffraction grating are studied, using impedance matching techniques. Analytical criteria and exact expressions are obtained for plasma and diffraction grating parameters which define resonance conditions for absolute transparency in the ideal plasma and reflectionless absorption in a plasma with dissipation.
