Two-Wave Approximation for Transition Layer of Inhomogeneous Media

Abstract

This report discusses the transition layer near the bound of inhomogeneous media on the base of the concept introduced here of the generalized wave modes (GWM). The researchers show in present work that previously described one-dimensional nonlocal model of inhomogeneous media 1 is a two-wave approximation for electrodynamic properties of the medium. The second, evanescent, wave in the model represents a sum of wide spectrum of GWM and can be used for approximate description of the transition layer.
