This textbook offers the first unified treatment of wave propagation in |

electronic and electromagnetic systems and introduces readers to the essentials of the transfer matrix method, a powerful analytical tool that can be used to model and study an array of problems pertaining to wave propagation in electrons and photons. It is aimed at graduate and advanced undergraduate students in physics, materials science, electrical and computer engineering, and mathematics, and is ideal for researchers in photonic crystals, negative index materials, left-handed materials, plasmonics, nonlinear effects, and optics. Peter Markos and Costas Soukoulis begin by establishing the analogy between wave propagation in electronic systems and electromagnetic media and then show how the transfer matrix can be easily applied to any type of wave propagation, such as electromagnetic, acoustic, and elastic waves. The transfer matrix approach of the tight-binding model allows readers to understand its implementation quickly and all the concepts of solid-state physics are clearly introduced. Markos and Soukoulis then build the discussion of such topics as random systems and localized and delocalized modes around the transfer matrix, bringing remarkable clarity to the subject. Total internal reflection, Brewster angles, evanescent waves, surface waves, and resonant tunneling in left-handed materials are introduced and treated in detail, as are important new developments like photonic crystals, negative index materials, and surface plasmons. Problem sets aid students working through the subject for the first time. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
The advocacy of Markus Ludescher to "democratic virtue" Civil Courage is based on literary texts from different periods and geographical origins, addressing the most diverse social contexts, such as France under the Occupation, France postcolonial or Quebec in the 90s.. |
Le plaidoyer de Markus Ludescher pour la « vertu démocratique » du courage civil est basé sur des textes littéraires de différentes époques et provenances géographiques, qui abordent les contextes sociaux les plus divers, tels que la France sous l’Occupation, la France postcoloniale ou le Québec des années 90. Dans une première partie philosophique et théorique, l’auteur donne un panorama historico-culturel du concept de courage civil et développe des paramètres propres à sa définition ; cette définition est adaptée dans la deuxième partie aux approches littéraires. La dernière partie est didactique, elle aborde les textes littéraires sous l’angle de la réception et de l’enseignement : il s’agit de remettre en question, dans une perspective éthique, les situations et les comportements décrits dans les textes, pour les intégrer dans l’enseignement. Cette étude, qui a reçu deux prix, est, selon une experte, un « travail extraordinaire, dépassant de loin ce qu’on peut attendre d’un mémoire de maîtrise ». |
