Near field diffracted at a dielectric wedge

Abstract

The integral equations of macroscopic dynamics [2] are used in [1] as the basis of a solution to the problem of the diffraction of a plane electromagnetic wave with a known polarization at a rectangular dielectric wedge. Expressions are given in this paper for the total electromagnetic field both inside a dielectric wedge of arbitrary flare angle and outside the wedge. The method used is the same as in [1].
