Efficient perturbative framework for coupling of radiative and guided modes in nearly periodic surfaces

We present a semi-analytical framework for computing the coupling of radiative and guided waves in slowly varying (nearly uniform or nearly periodic) surfaces, which is especially relevant to the exploitation of nonlocal effects in large-area metasurfaces. Our framework bridges a gap in the theory o...
