In our previous paper [T. Fordos, et al., J. Opt. 16 (2014) 065008] we have proposed a new approach for modeling of polarized light emission from anisotropic multilayers with active dipole layers. The method is suitable to model spin-polarized light emitting diodes (spin-LED) and spin-lasers. This paper deals with generalization of the approach to scattering matrix (S-matrix) formalism and to laterally periodic structures in the frame of rigorous coupled wave algorithm (RCWA). We use expansion of the permittivity tensor in a grating layer into Fourier series and the periodic electromagnetic field in the structure is expressed using a matrix method including appropriate boundary conditions. The new approach based on S-matrix formalism is also suitable for modeling of monomode emission from MQW laser structures with multiple source layers.
