 First, consider a single hole in an opaque screen - rectangular aperture. If a light is illuminating the screen on the other side a diffraction pattern is formed behind it (and can be seen on the screen located behind). With smaller ratio between aperture size and wavelength this effect becomes more pronouced and angular spacing between diffraction maxima is larger. First, consider a single hole in an opaque screen - rectangular aperture.

 Image on the right shows scheme of the computational volume used for the simulation (a cross-section). We use a parallelepiped bounded by simple absorbing boundary conditions. A plane wave source is established using Total/​Scattered field approach (TSF), but only single plane is used to excite the plane wave (all the other faces are skipped). Grating material is introduced as vector material - by using one perfect electric conductor (PEC) parallelepiped to create thin non-transparent plate and one smaller vaccum parallelepiped to create a rectangular hole in it. Image on the right shows scheme of the computational volume used for the simulation (a cross-section).
