This paper presents a method for analytical and numerical investigation of the reflection and absorption properties of a multilayered quasiperiodic structure. The structure consists of an arbitrary number of identical composite cells. The composite cells contain two magnetodielectric layers and a resistive film between them. There are no restrictions on the materials of the layers. The method presented in this paper is based on a theory of matrix polynomials and resistive boundary conditions. The obtained formulas for reflection and transmission coefficients have simple and analyzable form. The method is efficient for a variety of multilayered quasiperiodic structures. Under special conditions the considered structure can be used for analysis of its half infinite analogue.
Abstract-The EUProMeta is an international distributed doctoral school that educates students at the Ph.D. level in all theoretical and experimental aspects of metamaterials. This contribution provides an overview to the activities of the school, its intention, its structure and the way individual school events are implemented. The article aimes to raise awareness that education of students is an essential ingredient of a research community that advances its research field as a whole. Doctoral schools are an excellent institution to set a base of shared knowledge in a community and to interlink the people that contribute most to the actual research performed in the field.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
