Abstract
A conformal mapping method for obtaining electric potentials in a region close to a structured surface is developed. By neglecting one of the surface dimensions and assuming periodicity along the other, the resulting two-dimensional problem can be analytically treated. As examples of the method some arrays of monopoles and dipoles are calculated from which a surface model is proposed and exactly solved.
