This work is aimed at understanding the amplification and confinement of electromagnetic fields in open sub‐wavelength metallic cavities. We present a theoretical study of the electromagnetic diffraction by a perfectly conducting planar interface, which contains a sub‐wavelength rectangular cavity. We derive a rigorous asymptotic of the Green function associated with the Helmholtz operator when the width of the cavity shrinks to zero. We show that the limiting Green function is that of a perfectly conducting plane with a dipole in place of the cavity. We give an explicit description of the effective dipole in terms of the wavelength and of the geometry of the cavity. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
