Guided Electromagnetic Waves : Properties and Analysis

The development of efficient techniques for the rigorous modelling of electromagnetic phenomena is a key factor in determining the progress in many technical area from microwave engineering to X-Ray technology.

This book presents a class of numerical techniques for the analysis of discrete spectra of electrodynamic operators, highlights their advantages and drawbacks, and discusses their potential for solving practical problems.

Examples of the application of some of the methods to solve both field theory and engineering problems are included.
