Abstract
We present experimental results on the angular distribution of the light scattered by a one-dimensional gold-coated randomly rough surface in a conical configuration. The term conical refers to the case in which the plane of incidence makes an oblique angle with respect to the generators of the surface. The surface profile of our sample constitutes a good approximation to a Gaussian random process with a Gaussian correlation function. Effects related to the phenomenon of enhanced backscattering are observed.
