Beyond standard wave propagation
|
What is beyond standard wave propagation?
Clicking on the figure above opens an animation of wave propagation in a time-dependent material. In this example, the material's propagation velocity changes abruptly from 1500 m/s to 2500 m/s at t=50 μs. This so-called time boundary causes a reflected wave, propagating back to its origin, and a transmitted wave, propagating further away from its origin. More information can be found here.
This webpage contains a number of papers on non-standard wave propagation in exotic materials, such as non-reciprocal media, metamaterials with negative parameters (and negative refraction indices), materials with parity-time symmetry and time-dependent materials.
