Electromagnetic scattering from rough surfaces and layered structures represents a challenging yet pivotal research area that underpins advances in remote sensing, communications, and materials ...

SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, Vol. 61, No. 4 (Nov., 2000 - Jan., 2001), pp. 1386-1417 (32 pages) This first study deals with the one-dimensional (1D) problem of the scattering of ...

We consider multigrid iterative methods for the solution of electromagnetic scattering for dielectric materials. We show convergence of the iteration using coarse grids which are two to four times ...

Whenever light interacts with matter, light appears to slow down. This is not a new observation and standard wave mechanics can describe most of these daily phenomena. For example, when light is ...
