Scattering of an electromagnetic plane wave by a Luneburg lens II Wave theory

Scattering of an electromagnetic plane wave by a Luneburg lens I Ray theory

“…This is the first in a series of papers [9,10] examining a wide range of phenomena occurring when an electromagnetic plane wave is scattered by either a Luneburg lens or a modified Luneburg lens. In particular, a number of interesting effects occur that are impossible for scattering of a plane wave by a homogeneous sphere.…”

“…The transmission rainbow is analyzed in this paper using both ray theory and Airy theory. In the other two papers in this series [9,10] the orbiting ray is examined using the physical optics model where the wavefront exiting the Luneburg lens is Fraunhofer diffracted to the scattering far zone. In addition, both the orbiting ray and MDRs are examined (i) using the effective potential approach and (ii) approximating the continuously varying refractive index with a finely stratified multilayer sphere.…”

Lithographically Fabricated Magnifying Maxwell Fisheye Lenses

“…In our experiments the role of such reflective surface is played by the lens edge. On the other hand, an inverted Eaton lens [4] is defined as n = n 1 for r < R, and…”

Debye series for light scattering by a nonspherical particle

“…(1) and (9), respectively, and the interior electric field is given by Eq. (19). In these equations the coefficients A mn and B mn are the partial wave scattering amplitudes and C mn and D mn are the partial wave interior amplitudes corresponding to the incident wave field strengths G TE mn and G TM mn .…”

“…[17] and Refs. [18,19], respectively. The Debye series for a sphere with an embedded electric dipole source was derived in Ref.…”
