Covers the coupling of waves in periodic structures, focusing on the reflection coefficient for one period and the limitations of the Coupling of Modes approach.
Explores dispersion in anisotropic media, covering k surface, uniaxial crystals, double refraction, beam walk-off, and applications of birefringent crystals.
Explores electromagnetic wave propagation, including Poynting vector, irradiance, dipole radiation, dielectric constant, and natural linewidth in atoms and radiation.
