Electromagnetic Wave Transmission across a Thin Plasma Layer Comparable to Incident Wavelength
نویسندگان
چکیده
The transmission of electromagnetic waves across a thin plasma layer whose width is comparable to the wavelength of an incident wave is studied. The transmittances of transverse electric and transverse magnetic modes for both underdense and overdense plasmas are obtained as a function of the angle of incidence. It is thought that the significant reduction of transmittance in overdense plasma’s transverse magnetic modes is caused by the excitation of the electron plasma wave on the plasma resonance layer.

Transparency of overdense plasma with V shape density profile
In this study, we investigate the transparency of an overdense inhomogeneous plasma slab. This anomalous transmission is achieved when the conditions provided for the incident electromagnetic wave to excite coupled surface waves on the both sides of the slab. These conditions require that the homogeneous overdense plasma, or the metallic film, is placed between two dielectric layers. Here, the ...

In this paper, a theoretical study of electromagnetic wave passing through inhomogeneous over-dense plasma was performed. It was supposed that the plasma layer is immersed in vacuum and the plasma density has aparabolic profileform. In this way, the electric permittivity profile decreases gradually, acquires negative values, and then again becomes positive on the other side of the slab. It has ...

Characteristics of electromagnetic wave propagation through a magnetized plasma slab with linear electron density profile is analysed. In the numerical analysis, cold, weakly ionized, collisional and steady state plasma layer is divided into sufficiently thin, adjacent subslabs, in each of which plasma parameters are constant. Reflection and transmission coefficients are calculated for discreti...
متن کاملTransmission and Reflection Characteristics of a Concrete Block Wall Illuminated by a TM-polarized Obliquely incident wave
Typically, many of the modern buildings have concrete walls constructed from cinder block walls, that have periodic nature in their relative dielectric constant. This periodic nature excites higher-order Floquet harmonic modes at microwave frequencies, which leads to the propagation of scattered waves along with non-specular directions. Periodic structures exhibit different behaviors when illum...
متن کاملTheory of Gas Ionization by Intense Electromagnetic Fields
The distribution function of the electrons produced in the interaction between an intense electromagnetic wave and a neutral gas is derived and is shown to be nonequilibrium and anisotropic. By assuming that the time scale of gas ionization is much greater than the field period, it is shown that the electron distribution function formed in microwave and optical discharges has sharp anisotropy a...
