Homogenization of dispersive material parameters for Maxwell's equations using a singular value decomposition
(2004) In Technical Report LUTEDX/(TEAT-7124)/1-24/(2004)- Abstract
- We find effective, or homogenized, material parameters for Maxwell’s equations
when the microscopic scale becomes small compared to the scale induced
by the frequencies of the imposed currents. After defining a singular value decomposition
of the non-selfadjoint partial differential operator, we expand the
electromagnetic field in the modes corresponding to the singular values, and
show that only the smallest singular values make a significant contribution to
the total field when the scale is small. The homogenized material parameters
can be represented with the mean values of the singular vectors through a
simple formula, which is valid for wavelengths not necessarily... (More) - We find effective, or homogenized, material parameters for Maxwell’s equations
