Simple wave solutions for the Maxwell equations in bianisotropic, nonlinear media, with application to oblique incidence

Sjöberg, Daniel LU orcid (1999) In Technical Report LUTEDX/(TEAT-7078)/1-17/(1999)
Abstract
Using simple waves and six-vector formalism, the propagation of electromagnetic

waves in nonlinear, bianisotropic, nondispersive, homogeneous media is

analyzed. The Maxwell equations are formulated as an eigenvalue problem,

whose solutions are equivalent to the characteristic directions of the wave

front. Oblique incidence of plane waves in vacuum on a half space of nonlinear

material is solved, giving reflection and transmission operators for all

angles of incidence and all polarizations of the incident field. A condition on

Brewster angles is derived.
