The interaction between light and metals or heavily doped semiconductors is largely determined by their free conduction electrons. The frequency and wave vector dependent complex dielectric function ...

The Wiedemann-Franz law states that in metals, electrical and thermal conductivity are proportional, with a coefficient independent of the metal as long as the temperature is not too low. Contrary to ...

Ohm’s Law is the classical physics explanation of the linear relationship between voltage, current, and resistance in a conductor. Quantum mechanics provides insights into the mechanisms behind this ...

Fig. 1. The dielectric response models for conventional dielectric materials and for metamaterials. For conventional dielectric materials, there are three types of polarization models: Drude model for ...

The Sommerfeld model represents a decisive step forward compared to the Drude-Lorentz model. To repeat the experiment proposed in the previous tutorial (measurement of the effective mass of electrons ...

The Tesla Model Y has been the most popular electric car for a few years now, and it makes sense. The Model Y is reasonably priced for an EV while offering a good range and an excellent software ...

Abstract: This article concerns about the propagation properties of gigahertz (GHz) electromagnetic (EM) waves in a plasma-filled rectangular waveguide. To describe this complex issue, a ...

We consider the Casimir pressure between two metallic plates and calculate the four contributions to it determined by the propagating and evanescent waves and by the transverse magnetic and transverse ...

intensity reflection coefficient for TE-wave (s-wave) RTE 12 (ν) (for analysis of reflection from a semi-infinite medium); intensity reflection coefficient for TM-wave (p-wave) RTM 12 (v) (for ...

Abstract: This letter focuses on the propagation characteristics of the electromagnetic wave in the plasma under high-power microwave (HPM) illumination. A multiphysical method coupling the ...
