0305-515 - Principles of Electromagnetic Fields

Institution:

Rochester Institute of Technology

Subject:

Description:

An introduction to the fundamentals of electrostatic, magnetostatic and time varying fields that culminate with the Maxwell's equations, continuity and Lorentz force that govern the EM phenomena. Important of Laplace's and Poisson's equations in semiconductor applications is described.Electromagnetic properties of material media are discussed with emphasis on boundary conditions. Plane wave solution of Maxwell's equations is derived and discussed in loss-less and lossy media. Applications in optics include refl ection/refraction and polarization of light. An introduction to transmission line theory that applies to interconnects is provided through PSPICE simulation. A strong knowledge of vector calculus is desired.
