1. The term resonance domain is explained briefly in E. Noponen, A. Vasara, J. Turunen, J. M. Miller, and M. R. Taghizadeh, “Synthetic diffractive optics in the resonance domain,” J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 9, 1206–1213 (1992). A more rigorous definition would be the range of a grating period normalized by wavelength where neither effective medium theory nor scalar diffraction theory is accurate.
