Resonant electromagnetic scattering in anisotropic layered media

Resonant electromagnetic scattering in anisotropic layered media

The resonant excitation of an electromagnetic guided mode of a slab structure by exterior radiation results in anomalous scattering behavior, including sharp energy-transmission anomalies and field amplification around the frequency of the slab mode. In the case of a periodically layered ambient medium, anisotropy serves to couple the slab mode to radiation. Exact expressions for scattering phe...

Integral Equation Methods in Electromagnetic Scattering from Anisotropic Media

We investigate scattering of time-harmonic electromagnetic waves by an anisotropic inhomogeneous medium. The problem is equivalently transformed into a system of strongly singular integral equations. Uniqueness and existence of a solution is shown and we examine the regularity of the solution by means of integral equations. We also prove the analyticity of the scattered eld with respect to the ...

The inverse electromagnetic scattering problem in OCT for anisotropic media

The Inverse Electromagnetic Scattering Problem for Anisotropic Media ‡

The inverse electromagnetic scattering problem for anisotropic media plays a special role in inverse scattering theory due to the fact that the (matrix) index of refraction is not uniquely determined from the far field pattern of the scattered field even if multi-frequency data is available. In this paper we describe how transmission eigenvalues can be determined from the far field pattern and ...
