| Research Abstract |
During the 1998-1999 academic years, experimental study and analytical works were carried out as a basic research for developing a real time monitoring system based on the enhanced backscattering phenomenon of light.
An experimental system for measuring an enhanced backscattering of light as well as image processing software were developed. It is demonstrated that real time monitoring becomes possible, without statistical processing by computer, when an object under test mechanically rotates. Using such a system, several object with randomness are measured successfully. Theoretical works for analyzing scattering phenomena of light were also carried out. By the stochastic functional method developed by the project leader, theoretical analysis was made for the scattering from a random surface and a thin film with random surfaces. Diffracted backscattering enhancement is predicted to take place in case of a periodic random surface. In case of a thick thin film, it is found that ripples appear in the angular distribution of the scattering. By use of the theory of stochastic functional of a binary sequence, the wave scattering from a periodic random surface generated from a binary sequence was studied. Periodic Fourier transform is developed as a new method for analyzing the wave diffraction and scattering from a finite periodic surface.
