Frequency converter implementing an optical analogue of the cosmological redshift

open access: yes, 2010
According to general relativity, the frequency of electromagnetic radiation is altered by the expansion of the universe. This effect--commonly referred to as the cosmological redshift--is of utmost importance for observations in cosmology.

Transformation Optics and the Geometry of Light [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Metamaterials are beginning to transform optics and microwave technology thanks to their versatile properties that, in many cases, can be tailored according to practical needs and desires.

Minimization variational principles for acoustics, elastodynamics, and electromagnetism in lossy inhomogeneous bodies at fixed frequency

open access: yes, 2011
The classical energy minimization principles of Dirichlet and Thompson are extended as minimization principles to acoustics, elastodynamics and electromagnetism in lossy inhomogeneous bodies at fixed frequency.

Electromagnetic analysis of arbitrarily shaped pinched carpets

open access: yes, 2010
We derive the expressions for the anisotropic heterogeneous tensors of permittivity and perme- ability associated with two-dimensional and three-dimensional carpets of an arbitrary shape. In the former case, we map a segment onto smooth curves whereas in

The role of angular momentum in the construction of electromagnetic multipolar fields [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Multipolar solutions of Maxwell's equations are used in many practical applications and are essential for the understanding of light-matter interactions at the fundamental level.

Limitations in the $2D$ description of the electromagnetic waves propagation in thin dielectric and magnetic layers

open access: yes, 2017
The propagation of electromagnetic waves trapped within dielectric and magnetic layers is considered. The description within the three-dimensional theory is compared with the simplified analysis in two dimensions.

Analogy electromagnetism-acoustics: Validation and application to local impedance active control for sound absorption

open access: yes, 1998
An analogy between electromagnetism and acoustics is presented in 2D. The propagation of sound in presence of absorbing material is modeled using an open boundary microwave package.

Relative Nature of Electric Permittivity and Magnetic Permeability of Electromagnetic Wave

open access: yesIndian Journal of Advanced Physics, 2022
This research is about the special theory of relativity on electric permittivity and magnetic permeability of electromagnetic wave. For this, Four Maxwell’s electromagnetic equations play an important role. James Clerk Maxwell suggested that the light travel as electromagnetic wave which require no material medium for propagation. The speed of light (C)

Kramers-Kronig relations and the properties of conductivity and permittivity in heterogeneous media

open access: yes, 2018
The macroscopic electric permittivity of a given medium may depend on frequency, but this frequency dependence cannot be arbitrary, its real and imaginary parts are related by the well-known Kramers-Kronig relations.

Dielectric black hole analogues

open access: yes, 2001
Alternative to the sonic black hole analogues we discuss a different scenario for modeling the Schwarzschild geometry in a laboratory - the dielectric black hole.
