Abstract

We demonstrate theoretically the existence of optical coherence band gaps by performing simulations of partially coherent light incident on a linear array of circular holes in a subwavelength-thickness gold sheet. We use a simple scalar Foldy-Lax system of equations for our model. A possible physical mechanism for the band gaps is discussed.
