DESCRIPTION:
Dr. Felbacq has been a member of the Institut Universitaire de France (2009–2014) and has authored and co-authored numerous articles in international peer-reviewed journals. He was appointed associate professor at Blaise Pascal University, France, in 1995, where he founded a group devoted to the modeling and simulation of photonic crystals. About the AuthorDidier Felbacq is a full professor at the University of Montpellier, France. He then joined University of Montpellier in 2002, where he formed a group devoted to light–matter interaction in complex media. Prof. Felbacq is involved in theoretical and numerical research in close collaboration with experimentalists and his curr

It has an entire section devoted to numerical methods (finite elements, Fourier modal methods, scattering theory), which aims to motivate a reader to implement them. It concentrates on electromagnetic waves, but would also be useful in studying other types of metamaterials. This book covers the fundamental science behind metamaterials, from the physical, mathematical, and numerical points of view, focusing mainly on methods. It presents the structure of Maxwell equations, discusses the homogenization theory in detail, and includes important problems on resonance. Huge literature is now available on the subject but the results are scattered. The book is not written as a collection of independent chapters but as a textbook with a strong pedagogical flavor.. Although many ideas and possible applications have been proposed, which of these will emerge as a viable technology will
