摘要: We use the rigorous vector theory of weak photon localization for a semi-infinite medium composed nonabsorbing Rayleigh scatterers to compute full angular profile polarization opposition effect. The effect is caused by coherent backscattering unpolarized incident light and accompanies well-known intensity peak.
