Electromagnetic Boundary Conditions Defined in Terms of Normal Field Components
arXiv:0904.2951 · doi:10.1109/TAP.2010.2041149
Abstract
A set of four scalar conditions involving normal components of the fields D and B and their normal derivatives at a planar surface is introduced, among which different pairs can be chosen to represent possible boundary conditions for the electromagnetic fields. Four such pairs turn out to yield meaningful boundary conditions and their responses for an incident plane wave at a planar boundary are studied. The theory is subsequently generalized to more general boundary surfaces defined by a coordinate function. It is found that two of the pairs correspond to the PEC and PMC conditions while the other two correspond to a mixture of PEC and PMC conditions for fields polarized TE or TM with respect to the coordinate defining the surface.
