Guiding of Light with Pinholes
A new type of light waveguide using linearly aligned pinholes is presented.
Results of basic experiments are compared with theoretical estimates calculated
using continuous model. Since this waveguide utilizes no transparent material,
it can be used to guide electromagnetic waves of wide wavelength ranges as well
as other waves such as matter waves.Comment: 11 pages, 8 figure
