Absorbing boundary conditions for electromagnetic wave propagation

In this paper, the theoretical perfectly absorbing boundary condition on the boundary of a half{space domain is developed for the Maxwell system by considering the system in whole instead of considering each component of the electromagnetic elds individually. This boundary condition allows any wave motion generated within the domain to pass through the boundary of the domain without generating ...

Electromagnetic Characterization of Composite Materials and Microwave Absorbing Modeling

This book chapter is based on the experimental activities conducted mainly at Sapienza University of Rome: Astronautic, Electric and Energetic Engineering Department in collaboration with University of Maryland, Institute for Research in Electronics and Applied Physics (IREAP). A branch of scientific research about composite materials is focused on electromagnetic characterization and subsequen...

Electromagnetic Wave Absorbing Properties of Amorphous Carbon Nanotubes

Amorphous carbon nanotubes (ACNTs) with diameters in the range of 7-50 nm were used as absorber materials for electromagnetic waves. The electromagnetic wave absorbing composite films were prepared by a dip-coating method using a uniform mixture of rare earth lanthanum nitrate doped ACNTs and polyvinyl chloride (PVC). The microstructures of ACNTs and ACNT/PVC composites were characterized using...
