Lossy Wave Propagation through a Graded Interface to a Negative Index Material – Case of Constant Impedance
نویسندگان
چکیده
We investigate the transmission and reflection properties at the interfaces between the lossy positive-index materials (PIM) and negative-index materials (NIM) with graded permittivity and permeability. We present an exact analytical solution to Helmholtz’ equation for the oblique incidence on profile with the graded real parts of permittivity and permeability profile changing according to a hyperbolic tangent function. Thereafter we restrict our considerations to a special case of the normal incidence and present an exact analytical solution to Helmholtz' equation for a lossy case The simple analytical solutions and graphical results for the field intensity along the graded structure are presented. The model allows for arbitrary temporal dispersion.

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...

In this paper, we study two different Graded Index (GRIN) photonic crystal (PC) structures which are named as structure type I and type II. The PC structures are made of the square rod in an air background. To design a GRIN PC structure the lattice constant has been altered in the direction transverse to propagation. We investigated focusing effect and waveguiding behavior of electr...

In this paper we investigate focusing properties of graded index (GRIN) photonic crystal (PC) structures which are composed of different materials with different refractive indices. GRIN PC structure is constructed from air holes in dielectric background. The holes radii are varied in the normal direction to the propagation in such a way that a parabolic effective refractive index is produced. ...
