Radiation condition for a non-smooth interface between a dielectric and a metamaterial
نویسنده
چکیده
We study a 2D scalar harmonic wave transmission problem between a classical dielectric and a medium with a real valued negative permittivity/permeability which models an ideal metamaterial. When the interface between the two media has a corner, according to the value of the contrast (ratio) of the physical constants, this non-coercive problem can be ill-posed (not Fredholm) in H. This is due to the degeneration of the two dual singularities which then behave like r = e ln r with η ∈ R. This apparition of propagative singularities is very similar to the apparition of propagative modes in a waveguide for the classical Helmholtz equation with Dirichlet boundary condition, the contrast playing the role of the wavenumber. In this work, we derive for our problem a functional framework by adding to H one of these propagative singularities. Wellposedness is then obtained by imposing a radiation condition, justified by means of a limiting absorption principle, at the corner between the two media.

Refraction at the Interface of a Lossy Metamaterial
The refraction phenomenon at the interface of an ordinary material and a lossy metamaterial has been investigated. For oblique incidence on the lossy metamaterial, the planes of constant amplitude of the refracted wave are parallel to the interface and the plane of constant phases make a real angle with the interface (real refraction angle). The real refraction angle and hence, the real refract...

متن کاملT-coercivity for scalar interface problems between dielectrics and metamaterials
Some electromagnetic materials have, in a given frequency range, an effective dielectric permittivity and/or a magnetic permeability which are real-valued negative coefficients when dissipation is neglected. They are usually called metamaterials. We study a scalar transmission problem between a classical dielectric material and a metamaterial, set in an open, bounded subset of R, with d = 2, 3....
