Interaction of a plane electromagnetic wave with a structure consisting of a strip grating, a metamaterial layer, and magnetized plasma: resonance effects and their interpretation

Abstract

We reduce the boundary-value problem of the diffraction of a plane electromagnetic wave by a structure, which consists of a strip grating, a metamaterial layer, and magnetized plasma, to a system of linear algebraic second-kind equations with the kernel operator. Resonance properties of this structure are studied, and it is found that in the low-frequency range, it has several series of an infinite number of resonance frequencies with condensation points at certain finite frequencies.
