Abstract
The angle dependence of the scattered light from pairs and one-dimensional arrays of nanowires was studied. The intensity of the scattered light varied distinctly during rotation of the structure. The results could be theoretically modeled by treating a pair of nanowires as a double slit and an array of nanowires as a grating. The correspondence between theory and experimental results conclusively proves that the variations are due to the proposed interference effects.
