In the frame of volume integral equation methods, we introduce an alternative representation of the electromagnetic field scattered by a homogeneous object of arbitrary shape at a given frequency, in terms of a set of modes independent of…
We use coupled-mode theory to describe the scattering of a surface-plasmon polariton (SPP) from a square wave grating (Bragg grating) of finite extension written on the surface of either a metal-dielectric interface or a…
It is shown that viscoelastic wave dispersion and attenuation in a viscoelastic medium with a completely monotonic relaxation modulus is completely characterized by the phase speed and the dispersion-attenuation spectral measure. The…
In an isotropic, homogeneous, nondissipative, dielectric-magnetic medium that is simply moving with respect to an inertial reference frame, planewave solutions of the Maxwell curl postulates can be such that the phase velocity and the…
We present a detailed study of plane waves in noncommutative abelian gauge theories. The dispersion relation is deformed from its usual form whenever a constant background electromagnetic field is present and is similar to that of an…
The numerical analysis of elastic wave propagation in unbounded media may be difficult due to spurious waves reflected at the model artificial boundaries. This point is critical for the analysis of wave propagation in heterogeneous or…
Negative refraction is a peculiar wave propagation phenomenon that occurs when a wave crosses a boundary between a regular medium and a medium with both constitutive parameters negative at the given frequency. The phase and group velocities…
Magnetoelectric materials have the interesting property of exhibiting polarization induced by a magnetic field or magnetization induced by an electric field. As a consequence, a multitude of effects can be produced by means of controllable…
We explore the mathematical theory to rigorously describe the response of media with linear time-varying, generally dispersive, electromagnetic constitutive parameters. We show that even when the temporal inhomogeneity takes place on a time…
The transfer matrix method remains a simple yet powerful tool for modeling acoustic systems, particularly in a closed waveguide geometry. Here we present a generalisation of this method based on the theory of mode matching, that…
We show that for an observer in translational, rotational or gravitational motion, a linearly polarized plane wave has two modes of propagation in a stationary, homogeneous and isotropic medium according to Hertz's version of Maxwell's…
It has recently been shown that periodic layered media can reflect strongly for all incident angles and polarizations in a given frequency range. The standard treatment gets these band gaps from an eigenvalue equation for the Bloch factor…
Diffraction of electromagnetic plane waves by the gratings made by periodically corrugating the exposed planar boundaries of homogeneous, isotropic, linear dielectric--magnetic half--spaces is examined. The phase velocity vector in the…
The extreme magnetoelectric medium (EME medium) is defined in terms of two medium dyadics, $\alpha$, producing electric polarization by the magnetic field and $\beta$, producing magnetic polarization by the electric field. Plane-wave…
We systematically study a collection of refractive phenomena that can possibly occur at the interface of a two-dimensional photonic crystal, with the use of the wave vector diagram formalism. Cases with a single propagating beam (in the…
Surface wave propagation at the interface between different types of gyrotropic materials and an isotropic negatively refracting medium, in which the relative permittivity and relative permeability are, simultaneously, negative is…
This work considers the propagation of high-frequency waves in highly-scattering media where physical absorption of a nonlinear nature occurs. Using the classical tools of the Wigner transform and multiscale analysis, we derive semilinear…
We discuss propagation effects in realistic, transparent, metallo-dielectric photonic band gap structures in the context of negative refraction and super-resolution in the visible and near infrared ranges. In the resonance tunneling regime,…
We investigate the time evolution of waves in evanescent media generated by a source within this medium and observed at some distance away from the location of the source. The aim is to find a velocity which describes a causal process and…
We present a detailed derivation of the Poynting vector for Cauchy-Riemann beams propagating in free space considering a Gaussian modulation with $g \in \mathbb{C}$. The effect generated by this Gaussian modulation is a…
