This book presents a logically more complete form of macroscopic Maxwell equations than the conventional ones by applying long wavelength approximation to microscopic nonlocal theory. This scheme requires only one susceptibility tensor describing electric and magnetic polarizations together with their mutual interference. The quantum mechanical expression of the susceptibility covers both chiral and achiral symmetry. Only in the absence of chiral symmetry, this reduces to the conventional form, under the additional condition of using magnetic susceptibility defined with respect to, not H, but…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
This book presents a logically more complete form of macroscopic Maxwell equations than the conventional ones by applying long wavelength approximation to microscopic nonlocal theory. This scheme requires only one susceptibility tensor describing electric and magnetic polarizations together with their mutual interference. The quantum mechanical expression of the susceptibility covers both chiral and achiral symmetry. Only in the absence of chiral symmetry, this reduces to the conventional form, under the additional condition of using magnetic susceptibility defined with respect to, not H, but B. This scheme solves various problems inherent to the conventional scheme of Maxwell equations.

Autorenporträt
Brief Biography of Kikuo Cho Prof. Dr. Kikuo Cho was born in 1940 in Japan. He got his PhD in 1970 from Tokyo University for the theoretical study of optical line shapes of alkali-halide phosphors. He was research assistant at the Institute for Solid State Physics of Tokyo University from 1966 to 1971, studying the optical properties of impurity centers and excitons in non-metallic crystals.  Then he spent 5 years and a half in Europe, as visiting Professor at Stuttgart University for 1971-72, as reseach associate at the University of Strasbourg for 1972-73, and as visiting researcher at Institut fuer Festkoerperforschung in Stuttgart for 1973-76.  During this period, he had strongly collaborated with experimental groups, which resulted in the book "Excitons" (Springer Verlag, Topics in Current Physics 14). In 1977 he became associate Professor of solid state theory at Osaka University and full professor in 1991. In the latter half of this period his main activity ison the construction of microscopic nonlocal response theory ("Optical Response of Nanostructures", Springer Verlag, series Solid State Science).  After retirement in 2004, he became Professor Emeritus of Osaka University. In the years 2006 - 2010 he was Fellow of Toyota Physical and Chemical  Research Institute, and devoted himself to the logically complete reformulation of macroscopic Maxwell equations based on his own microscopic nonlocal response theory. It resulted in the book, "Reconstruction of macroscopic Maxwell equations" (Springer Tracts in Modern Physics, 2010). Since 2015 July he is a member of the council of Toyota Physical and Chemical Research Institute.   
Rezensionen
From the reviews:

"The book under review is a specialized but at the same time a very interesting exposition on the Maxwell equations in matter or, in other words, on the response functions of matter to electromagnetic fields. It certainly is of interest to physicists working in condensed matter physics and optics, but also to scientists who want to learn more about some fundamental aspects of electrodynamics. Since the author applies his theory to metamaterials, the book could also catch the attention of scientists specializing in material science." (Marek Nowakowski, Mathematical Reviews, Issue 2012 a)
