Ab&act-The dispersion relation for wave propagation in a homogeneous, electrically neutral electron gas subject to crossed static electric and magnetic fields is derived using the coupled Maxwell-Boltzmann-Vlasov equations. The cutoff condition for transverse circularly polarized electromagnetic waves is obtained from the derived dispersion relation. The variation of the cutoff frequency CO,, w...

The aim of this work was to evaluate differences in energy flows between normal and immortalized cells when these distinct biological systems are exposed to environmental stimulation. These differences were considered using a constructal thermodynamic approach, and were subsequently verified experimentally. The application of constructal law to cell analysis led to the conclusion that temperatu...

Electromagnetic properties of a new class of two-dimensional periodic nanostructured materials, sub-wavelength plasmonic crystals (SPCs), are investigated. An SPC is a periodic lattice of metallic inclusions with negative dielectric permittivity < 0 imbedded in a dielectric host with h > 0, with the lattice period much smaller than the wavelength of light. It is found that two types of propagat...

We present a unified approach which is accurate at all temperatures and densities for calculating the energy loss from a stellar plasma due to the plasma process, the decay of photons and plasmons into neutrino pairs. To allow efficient numerical calculations, an analytic approximation to the dispersion equations for photons and plasmons is developed. It is correct to order α in the classical, ...

The semi-classical model of atom-field interaction has been fully studied for some multilevel atoms, e.g. Vee, L, Cascade X , Y, and inverted Y and so on. This issue is developed into the full-quantum electrodynamics formalism, where the probe and coupling electromagnetic fields are quantized. In this article, we investigate the full-quantum model of absorption and dispersion spectrum of trappe...

An electromagnetic truncated Gaussian pulse propagates through a waveguide with piecewise diierent dielectric constants. The waveguide contains a barrier, namely a region of a lower dielectric constant compared to the neighboring regions. This setup yields a purely imaginary wave vector in the region of the barrier ('electromagnetic tunneling'). We exactly calculate the time-dependent Green's f...

A new approach for the spatial and temporal modulation of electromagnetic fields at terahertz frequencies is presented. The waveguiding elements are based on plasmonic and metamaterial notions and consist of an easy-to-manufacture periodic chain of metallic box-shaped elements protruding out of a metallic surface. It is shown that the dispersion relation of the corresponding electromagnetic mod...

An important issue in antenna array design is reduction of mutual coupling. In microstrip antennas this reduction can be achieved by using electromagnetic band-gap (EBG) structures. These structures prevent the propagation of surface waves on the substrate of a microstrip antenna array. This paper presents a new configuration of a planar compact electromagnetic bandgap structure to reduce mutua...

Josephson plasma waves are linear electromagnetic modes that propagate along the planes of cuprate superconductors, sustained by interlayer tunnelling supercurrents. For strong electromagnetic fields, as the supercurrents approach the critical value, the electrodynamics become highly nonlinear. Josephson plasma solitons (JPSs) are breather excitations predicted in this regime, bound vortex-anti...

We report time-domain measurements with subpicosecond resolution of optical tunneling of terahertz electromagnetic pulses undergoing frustrated total internal reflection. Measurements of the transmitted electromagnetic pulses over a 3 THz bandwidth permits direct determination of frequency-dependent phase and amplitude changes in both the thin and opaque barrier limits in a single measurement. ...
