12. The Maxwell Equations a. Farady’s law and the Electromagnetic “force” (EMF). Consider a charge, q, moved around a loop, c.

Boundary conditions. Let the fields in two neighboring media be denoted by 1 and 2. Let the surface charge density on the surface between the two media be σ and let the surface r current density there be K . Then the boundary conditions are r r ( D2 − D1 ) ⋅ nˆ = 4πσ r r ( E2 − E1 ) × nˆ = 0 r r ( B2 − B1 ) ⋅ nˆ = 0 r r 4π r nˆ × ( H 2 − H 1 ) = K c c. Scalar and vector potentials r r r r Let us introduce the vector potential A such that B = ∇ × A . This ensures that r r ∇ ⋅ B = 0 . Then, from the Maxwell’s equations, we have r r ⎛ r 1 ∂A ⎞ ⎟=0 ∇ × ⎜⎜ E + c ∂t ⎟⎠ ⎝ 3 and therefore we choose r r ⎛ r 1 ∂A ⎞ ⎜E + ⎟ = −∇ Φ ⎜ c ∂t ⎟⎠ ⎝ These choices satisfy the two homogeneous Maxwell’s equations.

Poynting theorem. The rate of work done by the electromagnetic fields on a moving charge q is For a system of current density, that rate will be r r qv ⋅ E . r r r r r r r ⎛ r r 1 ∂D ⎞ ⎜ ∫ dr J ⋅ E = 4π ∫ dr ⎜⎝ cE ⋅ (∇ × H ) − E ⋅ ∂t ⎟⎟⎠ Using r r r r r r r r r ∇ ⋅ ( E × H ) = H ⋅ (∇ × E ) − E ⋅ (∇ × H ) we find r r r r r r r r r r r⎛ 1 ∂D ∂B ⎞ ⎜ ⎟⎟ ( ) d r J ⋅ E = − d r c ∇ ⋅ E × H + E ⋅ + H ⋅ ∫ ∫ ⎜ 4π ∂t ∂t ⎠ ⎝ 5 Denoting the total energy density of the electromagnetic field by U, ( 1 r r r r U= E⋅D+ B⋅H 8π ) we obtain the conservation law r r ∂U r r + ∇ ⋅ S = −J ⋅ E ∂t total energy rate mechanical work with the vector pointing r c r r S= E×H 4π Example: A segment of a wire of length L and radius a, carrying the current I. At the surface of the wire the magnetic field is r 2I B = ϕ̂ ca and the electric field there is 6 r V E = zˆ , L where V is the voltage creating the current. The Poynting vector at the surface of the wire is r c r r I V S= E×H = ρˆ , 4π 2πa L which is the power supplied by the battery, the wire, 2πaL . P = IV , divided by the surface area of 13. Electromagnetic waves a. In the absence of sources (i.e., no free charges or free currents) the Maxwell’s equations read r r r r ∇ ⋅ D = 0r ∇ ⋅ B = 0r r r 1 ∂B r r 1 ∂D ∇× E + = 0 ∇× H − =0 c ∂t c ∂t Let us describe the medium by its dielectric constant, permeability, r r B = µH . We then have r r D = εE , and magnetic 7 r r r r ∇ ⋅ E = 0r ∇ ⋅ B = 0r r r 1 ∂B r r µε ∂E ∇× E + = 0 ∇× B − =0 c ∂t c ∂t We see that each of the filed components satisfy the wave equation 1 ∂ 2u ∇ u− 2 2 =0 v ∂t 2 with the velocity c v= εµ The solution is (in general) r r r r r ik ⋅ r − i ω t ik ⋅ r − iω t u ( r , t ) = Ae + Be with the dispersion relation relating the wave-vector with the frequency k= ω v = εµ ω c Let us now solve for the electromagnetic fields. We write r iknˆ ⋅ rr − iωt r r E (r , t ) = E0e r r r iknˆ ⋅ rr − iωt B (r , t ) = B0e 8 with the convention that the physical fields are the real parts of the above expressions. From the homogeneous Maxwell’s equations we have that r E0 ⋅ nˆ = 0 r B0 ⋅ nˆ = 0 and therefore both the electric and the magnetic fields are perpendicular to the direction of the wave propagation. This wave is called transverse wave. From the other two Maxwell’s equations we have r r B0 = εµ nˆ × E0 The Poynting vector, averaged over a period, is given by the real part of r c r r* 〈S 〉 = E×H 8π Explanation: r c 1 r r* 1 r r * c r r r* r * r r * r* r 〈S 〉 = 〈 ( E + E ) × ( H + H )〉 = 〈E × H + E × H + E × H + E × H 〉 4π 2 2 16π c r r * r* r = 〈E × H + E × H 〉 16π In our case 9 r c 〈S 〉 = 8π ε r 2 | E0 | nˆ µ The energy density, averaged over a period is 1 〈u 〉 = 16π ⎛ r r* 1 r r* ⎞ ⎜⎜ εE ⋅ E + B ⋅ B ⎟⎟ µ ⎠ ⎝ and in our case ε r 2 〈u 〉 = | E0 | 8π b. Electromagnetic waves in a conducting medium. We consider the charge-free case. We have r r r r r r ∇ ⋅ D = ε∇ ⋅ E ∇ ⋅ B r= 0 r =0 r r 1 ∂B r r 1 ∂D 4π r ∇× E + = 0 ∇× H − Jf = c ∂t c ∂t c Using Ohm’s law, relating the current density to the electric field Via the conductivity r r J = σE the fourth equation becomes 10 v r r 1 ε ∂E 4π r ∇× B − = σE µ c ∂t c Therefore we now find r r r 2 ⎛ ⎛ ⎞ ⎛ ⎞ εµ ∂ ⎜ E ⎞⎟ 4πµσ ∂ E 2 E ⎜ ⎟ ⎜ ⎟ r⎟− 2 2 ⎜ r⎟ = 0 ∇ ⎜ r⎟− 2 ⎜ ∂ c t ⎝ B ⎠ c ∂t ⎝ B ⎠ ⎝B⎠ Using again a plane-wave solution, the dispersion law (relating the wave vector to the frequency) is now k = µε 2 ω2 ⎛ 4πσ ⎞ + i 1 ⎜ ⎟ ωε ⎠ c2 ⎝ and the wave is damped. Approximately, we find 2π µ σ c c ε 2πωµσ k = (1 + i ) c k = εµ ω +i 4πσ << 1 ωε 4πσ >> 1 ωε 11 In a good conductor (high conductivity, law frequency), the electromagnetic wave penetrates only over a length given by δ= c 2πµωσ which is called `skin-depth’. Example: A wave of frequency ω polarized in the x-direction, and propagates along the z-direction in a good conductor occupying the z>0 space. Let us assume that ε , µ = 1. The wave is then given by r E = E0 xˆe − iωt e − z (1− i )δ The current density which is established in the conductor is r J = σE0 xˆe − iωt e − z (1− i ) / δ Let us consider a slab of dimensions in the slab (along the x-direction) is l × h × dz . Then the current flowing dI = σE0 e − iωt e − z (1− i ) / δ hdz and the total current becomes 12 ∞ I = ∫ σE0 e − iωt e − z (1− i ) / δ hdz = E0 0 σhδ 1− i e − iωt Taking the real part to obtain the `true’ current, we find I = E0σhδ cos(ωt + π 4 ) 2 We see that the current is not in=phase with the field. The resistance of a slab of thickness R= δ is l σhδ Writing V = E0 l for the potential difference on the slab, we find IR = V cos(ωt + π 4 ) 2 13 14. Waveguides Consider a rectangular waveguide of cross section of dimensions a and b and axis along the z-direction. In the absence of charge and current distributions, the electric and magnetic fields satisfy r r 2 ⎛E⎞ 1 ∂ ⎛E⎞ ∇ 2 ⎜⎜ r ⎟⎟ − 2 2 ⎜⎜ r ⎟⎟ = 0 ⎝ H ⎠ c ∂t ⎝ H ⎠ When the wave propagates along the z-direction, and the electric field is only in the x-y plane, then r E = xˆE x + yˆ E y r H = xˆH x + yˆ H y + zˆH z and all the z-dependence of the fields is in the form e ik g z . Denoting ω = ck we have ∂2H z ∂2H z 2 2 + + ( k − k g )H z = 0 2 2 ∂x ∂y 14 r r r 1 ∂B = 0 we then find From the Maxwell’s equation ∇ × E + c ∂t k k H y , Ey = − H x Ex = kg kg and from his other equation ikE x + r r r 1 ∂D ∇× H − =0 c ∂t we have ∂H z ∂H z − ik g H y = 0, ikE y − + ik g H x = 0 ∂y ∂x Therefore, ⎛ ⎡ k ⎤2 ⎞ ∂H z ik g ⎜1 − ⎢ ⎥ ⎟ H x = ⎜ ⎢k ⎥ ⎟ ∂x ⎝ ⎣ g⎦ ⎠ ⎛ ⎡ k ⎤2 ⎞ ∂H z ik g ⎜1 − ⎢ ⎥ ⎟ H y = ⎜ ⎢k ⎥ ⎟ ∂y ⎝ ⎣ g⎦ ⎠ and it is sufficient to find H z to find all fields. Now we solve for that component by variables separation. Writing H z ( x, y ) = h1 ( x ) h2 ( y ) we have 15 d 2 h1 2 + k h1 = 0, x 2 dx d 2 h2 2 + k h2 = 0 y 2 dy with k x2 + k y2 − k 2 + k g2 = 0 We now have the following solution Hz = e E x = −i Ey = i kk y k 2 g ik g z ( A1 sin k x x sin k y y + A2 sin k x x cos k y y + A3 cos k x x sin k y y + A4 cos k x x cos k y y ) (1 − [ k 2 −1 ik g z ] ) e ( A1 sin k x x cos k y y − A2 sin k x x sin k y y + A3 cos k x x cos k y y − A4 cos k x x sin k y y ) kg kk x k ik z (1 − [ ]2 ) −1 e g ( A1 cos k x x sin k y y + A2 cos k x x cos k y y − A3 sin k x x sin k y y − A4 sin k x x cos k y y ) 2 kg kg Now we need to apply boundary conditions. Taking the surface of the waveguide as a conductor then Ey = 0 at x=0 and x=a gives A1 = A2 = 0 and k x = mπ / a 16 where m is an integer. Taking Ex = 0 at y=0 and y=b gives A1 = A3 = 0 and k y = nπ / b where n is an integer.
