Effective complex permittivity tensor of a periodic array of cylinders
We determine the effective complex permittivity of a two-dimensional
composite, consisting of an arbitrary doubly periodic array of identical
circular cylinders in a homogeneous matrix, and whose dielectric properties are
complex-valued. Efficient formulas are provided to determine the effective
complex permittivity tensor which are in excellent agreement with numerical
calculations. We also show that in contrast to the real-valued case, the real
and imaginary parts of the effective complex-valued tensor can exhibit
non-monotonic behavior as functions of volume fraction of cylinders, and can be
either greater or less than that of the constituents.Comment: 13 pages, 14 figure
On the determination of the boundary impedance from the far field pattern
We consider the Helmholtz equation in the half space and suggest two methods
for determining the boundary impedance from knowledge of the far field pattern
of the time-harmonic incident wave. We introduce a potential for which the far
field patterns in specially selected directions represent its Fourier
coefficients. The boundary impedance is then calculated from the potential by
an explicit formula or from the WKB approximation. Numerical examples are given
to demonstrate efficiency of the approaches. We also discuss the validity of
the WKB approximation in determining the impedance of an obstacle.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figure
The effect of disorder on the wave propagation in one-dimensional periodic optical systems
The influence of disorder on the transmission through periodic waveguides is
studied. Using a canonical form of the transfer matrix we investigate
dependence of the Lyapunov exponent on the frequency and
magnitude of the disorder . It is shown that in the bulk of the bands
, while near the band edges it has the order . This dependence is illustrated by numerical simulations.Comment: 15 pages, 4 figure
