The discovery of extraordinary optical transmission (EOT) of light through periodic arrays of subwavelength diameter holes in metal films, with transmission coefficients that can exceed unity when normalized to the aperture area, has inspired numerous studies. This paper summarizes the theoretical and experimental results, for both 1D and 2D structures, and several EOT phenomena are considered. The analysis is performed with a unifying theoretical approach which can be applied to the various geometries, ranging from arrays of apertures to the case of a single one.
