Spatially dispersive (also known as non-local) electromagnetic media are considered where the parameters defining the permittivity relation vary periodically. Maxwell's equations give rise to a difference equation corresponding to the…

Interlaced metallic wire meshes are 3D metamaterials consisting of two intertwined metallic networks. These plasmonic double nets give rise to otherwise unobserved longitudinal, weakly dispersive and broadband electron acoustic modes from…

We consider a wave propagating through a thin disordered slab inside a wire or waveguide of finite width. In the dense weak scattering limit, the statistics for the complex reflection and transmission coefficients (the coherent field) is…
A method is proposed for the analysis of the propagation of electromagnetic waves through a homogeneous slab of a medium with Drude-Lorentz dispersion behavior, and excited by a causal sinusoidal source. An expression of the time dependent…
A new mechanism of Bragg reflection is identified, one that, remarkably, occurs in a uniform medium and relies on resonant tuning of the medium's parameters. Due to uniformity, reflection ensues over a broad wavelength range, much like a…
We present a planar design of a metamaterial exhibiting electromagnetically induced transparency that is amenable to experimental verification in the microwave frequency band. The design is based on the coupling of a split-ring resonator…
The propagation of a wave in a medium is generally affected when the medium is moving with respect to the observer. Because plasma equilibria often involve plasma flows, for instance in astrophysics or in magnetic confinement nuclear fusion…

A medium with specific anisotropic refractive indices can induce a supersymmetric behavior in the propagation of polarized electromagnetic waves, in an analogue fashion to a quantum mechanical system. The polarizations of the wave are the…
The current conceptual model of mineral dissolution in porous media is comprised of three dissolution patterns (wormhole, compact, and uniform) - or regimes - that develop depending on the relative dominance of flow, diffusion, and reaction…
