Lectures on The Electromagnetic Field
Theory 2010

An electrodynamics is a division of science, which describes the process of the excitation and propagation of electromagnetic waves in different media.  ELECTRODYNAMICS studies the electromagnetic fields, which assert by means of the forces, which act on the particles of the substances, which possess electric charges. The course of technical electrodynamics includes the study of the theory of electromagnetic processes and electrodynamic of devices technique (electrodynamic applications: http://www.edapplications.com/). It covers the wide region of electromagnetic phenomena from the propagation of waves in the outer or near-Earth spaces to the processes in the electromagnetic devices.

Reflection and transmission of the plane electromagnetic wave.
Over the last several years there has been a surge of interest in artificiall materials because of their potential to expand the range of electromagnetic properties in materials. P h o t o n i c c r y s t a l s: 
The electromagnetic wave propagation on photonic cristals. Photonic crystals are periodic structures. The non-existence of propagating electromagnetic modes inside the structures at certain frequencies introduces unique optical phenomena such as low-loss-waveguides. The part of the spectrum for which wave propagation is not possible is called the optical band-gap. The underlying physical phenomenon is based on diffraction.

ELECTROMAGNETIC METAMATERIALS (Metamaterial=Left-handed Material =Negative Index Material)
  "R" is the Right-handed Material and "L" is the Left-handed Material Electromagnetic metamaterials are artificially structured composites that can be engineered to have desired electromagnetic properties, while having other advantageous material properties. In addition to their potential in practical applications and devices, metamaterials can offer unique and previously unexplored material properties.
