Using the semiclassical approach for the description of the propagation of the electromagnetic waves in optically active isotropic media we derive a new formula for the circular dichroism parameter. The theory is based on the idea of the time damped electromagnetic wave interacting with the molecules of the sample. In this theory, the Lambert-Beer law need not be taken as an empirical law, however, it follows naturally from the requirement that the electromagnetic wave obeys the Maxwell equations.

This chapter examines solutions to the Maxwell equations in a vacuum: monochromatic plane waves and their polarizations, plane waves, and the motion of a charge in the field of a wave (which is the principle upon which particle detection is based). A plane wave is a solution of the vacuum Maxwell equations which depends on only one of the Cartesian spatial coordinates. The monochromatic plane waves form a basis (in the sense of distributions, because they are not square-integrable) in which any solution of the vacuum Maxwell equations can be expanded. The chapter concludes by giving the conditions for the geometrical optics limit. It also establishes the connection between electromagnetic waves and the kinematic description of light discussed in Book 1.

AbstractIn this paper, we present the proof of superlensing an arbitrary object using complementary media and we study reflecting complementary media for electromagnetic waves. The analysis is based on the reflecting technique and new results on the compactness, existence, and stability for the Maxwell equations with low regularity data.

Negative index materials are artificial structures whose refractive index has negative value over some frequency range. The study of these materials has attracted a lot of attention in the scientific community not only because of their many potential interesting applications but also because of challenges in understanding their intriguing properties due to the sign-changing coefficients in equations describing their properties. In this paper, we establish cloaking using complementary media for electromagnetic waves. This confirms and extends the suggestions of Lai et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 102 (2009) 093901] for the full Maxwell equations. The analysis is based on the reflecting and removing localized singularity techniques, three-sphere inequalities, and the fact that the Maxwell equations can be reduced to a weakly coupled second order elliptic equations.

Conversion of a gravitational wave into an electromagnetic one in a laser coherent emission field is studied. As a result two electromagnetic waves are created. For calculation the Maxwell equations in three-dimensional vector form are used. Optimal detection of the gravitational wave is discussed. In a particular case it is the laser interferometric antenna. This approach is identical to those based on integration of the isotropic geodesic equation, the eikonal equation, giving the three-pulsing response of the electromagnetic signal obtained by Estabrook and Wahlquist. It also results in the matrix method developed by Vinet for calculation of laser interferometric antennae.
