About this ebook

Electromagnetic Properties of Heterostructures: Background and Calculation Methods covers the fundamental aspects of the electromagnetic properties of heterostructures and the theoretical knowledge of the computational techniques needed to understand dielectric phenomena in quantitative and physical terms. The book re-establishes the conceptual foundations of the physics associated with numerical simulation tools of the Laplace or the Poisson equations and shows their immediate implementation. It is relevant for all practicing engineers and materials scientists who develop composite materials that are capable of handling specified technological requirements by utilizing their electromagnetic properties. - Explains the basic concepts of the dielectric behavior of heterostructures and discusses how they relate to existing computational methods - Covers the most widely used and efficient computational approaches, including effective medium and percolation theory - Fills the gap between theoretical knowledge learned in the classroom and practical knowledge gleaned through extensive work in the lab
