我们提出了一个深入的分析杨氏狭缝实验时，只有一个单一的狭缝的双重照明的聚焦激光束在可见光和热红外波长。与Kuzmin等人最近获得的结果一致。[Opt. Lett. 32，445（2007）]，即使只有单个狭缝被聚焦光束照射，我们也表明远场图案呈现正弦杨氏条纹。由于完全矢量电磁计算和一个简单的模型，我们提供了一个全面的讨论在实验中的表面波的性质。(C)2009年美国光学学会
We present an in-depth analysis of Young's slit experiment when solely a single slit of the doublet is illuminated by a focused laser beam at visible and thermal infrared wavelengths. In line with the recent results obtained by Kuzmin et al.. [Opt. Lett. 32, 445 (2007)], even if only a single slit is illuminated by a focused beam, we show that the far-field pattern exhibits sinusoidal Young's fringes. Thanks to fully vectorial electromagnetic computations and to a simple model, we provide a comprehensive discussion of the nature of surface waves at work in the experiment.
