Dynamic raytracing in inhomogeneous anisotropic media
I present a new differential equation system for dynamic raytracing in inhomogeneous anisotropic media. This new system is computationally much more efficient than the traditional elastic-parameter based system as the right-hand-side functions of this new system are simple. Evaluation of these functions involves only differentiation of phase velocities. Evaluation of the right-hand-side functio...
متن کاملElectromagnetic Field Representation in Inhomogeneous Anisotropic Media*
Some of the basic developments in the theory of electromagnetic field representation in terms of Hertz vectors are reviewed. A solution for the field in an inhomogeneous anisotropic medium is given in terms of the two Hertz vectors. Conditions for presentation of the field in terms of uncoupled transverse electric and transverse magnetic modes, in a general orthogonal coordinate system, are der...
متن کاملStokes-vector evolution in a weakly anisotropic inhomogeneous medium.
The equation for evolution of the four-component Stokes vector in weakly anisotropic and smoothly inhomogeneous media is derived on the basis of a quasi-isotropic approximation of the geometrical optics method, which provides the consequent asymptotic solution of Maxwell's equations. Our equation generalizes previous results obtained for the normal propagation of electromagnetic waves in strati...
متن کاملNotes on Green’s functions in inhomogeneous media
All of these are of the form Au ˆ = f where  is self-adjoint and positive-definite (assuming zero Dirichlet boundary conditions and an appropriate inner product 〈u, v〉), as we’ve seen previously in class, so they should have unique solutions (excluding pathological c functions). However, the solutions may in general be quite different from those of −∇u = f . Can we relate them to G0, the Green...
متن کاملRay-Optics Analysis of Inhomogeneous Uniaxially Anisotropic Media
Uniaxial optical anisotropy in the geometrical-optics approach is a classical problem and most of the theory is known for at least fifty years. Although the subject appears frequently in the literature, it is nearly silent about wave propagation through inhomogeneous anisotropic media. At the same time, the rapid advances in liquid-crystal lenses call for a good overview of the theory on wave p...
