Taylor & Francis Ltd Diffractional Optics of Millimetre Waves Series
Book SynopsisDiffractional Optics of Millimetre Waves combines those elements of diffraction theory normally associated with optics, including Gaussian beams, lenses, and mirrors, and extends them into the micro- and millimetre wavelength range. In this regime there are a number of applications in devices, such as automobile proximity sensors, satellite-TV receiving antennae, and non-destructive testing systems. Researchers working in these areas would benefit from greater understanding of the diffraction phenomena involved. A translated and updated version of the authors'' book Diffraction Quasioptics, this book will present results formerly unavailable in the general literature.Table of ContentsTheory of diffraction. Short focusing Fresnel zone plates. Elements of diffraction quasioptics. Synthesis of diffractional elements. Diffractional antennae at millimetre wavelengths. The influence of surface form on the structure of Fresnel zones. Applications of diffractional optics and quasioptics. Diffractional antennae.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Magnetics Dielectrics and Wave Propagation with
Book SynopsisFuture microwave, wireless communication systems, computer chip designs, and sensor systems will require miniature fabrication processes in the order of nanometers or less as well as the fusion of various material technologies to produce composites consisting of many different materials. This requires distinctly multidisciplinary collaborations, implying that specialized approaches will not be able to address future world markets in communication, computer, and electronic miniaturized products.Anticipating that many students lack specialized simultaneous training in magnetism and magnetics, as well as in other material technologies, Magnetics, Dielectrics, and Wave Propagation with MATLABR Codes avoids application-specific descriptions, opting for a general point of view of materials per se. Specifically, this book develops a general theory to show how a magnetic system of spins is coupled to acoustic motions, magnetoelectric systems, and superconductors.Table of Contents1. Review of Maxwell Equations and Units 2. Classical Principles of Magnetism 3. Introduction to Magnetism 4. Deposition of Ferrite Films at the Atomic Scale by ATLAD Technique 5.

Book SynopsisA Powerful Window into Cosmic EvolutionTerahertz (THz) observations of interstellar atoms, molecules, and dust serve as powerful probes of the conditions within the interstellar medium that permeates our galaxy, providing insights into the origins of stars, planets, galaxies, and the Universe. Taking a cross-disciplinary approach to the subject, Terahertz Astronomy explores THz astrophysics and the technologies that make this rapidly evolving field possible.The first four chapters of the book discuss the origin and interpretation of THz light in astrophysical sources. The remaining five chapters present an overview of the technologies used to collect and detect THz light. Every chapter contains worked-out examples and exercises.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Geometrical Optics of Weakly Anisotropic Media
Book SynopsisThis book explores recent developments in QIA and describes the application of the theory to different branches of wave physics, from plasma physics, quantum physics, and ionospheric radio wave propagation to acoustics, optics, and astrophysics. This is an up-to-the-minute exposition of the latest developments in an important new area, written by authors of outstanding reputation. A rich source of both theoretical methods and practical applications, it covers a wide range of problems of general physical significance. Until recently, there was no effective method for describing waves in weakly anisotropic inhomogeneous media. The method of quasi-isotropic approximation (QIA) of geometrical optics was developed to overcome this problem. The QIA approach bridges the gap between geometrical optics of isotropic media (Rytov method) and that of anisotropic media (Courant-Lax approach), thus providing a complete picture of the geometrical optics of inhomogeneous media.Table of Contents1. Geometrical Optics of Inhomogeneous Media 2. Modifications and Generalizations of QIA 3. Electromagnetic Waves in Magnetized Plasmas 4. Quasi-Isotropic Approximation in Quantum Mechanics 5. Geometrical Acoustics of Weakly Anisotropic Media 6. Optical Effects in Weakly Anisotropic Media
