2Interference (wave propagation) — Two point interference in a ripple tank. In physics, interference is the phenomenon in which two waves superpose each other to form a resultant wave of greater or lower amplitude. Interference usually refers to the interaction of waves that are… …
3lee wave — ▪ air current vertical undulation of airstreams on the lee side of a mountain. (The lee side is the side that is downstream from the wind.) The first wave occurs above the mountain that causes it, with a series of waves of equal horizontal… …
4Four-wave mixing — is an intermodulation phenomenon in optical systems, whereby interactions between 3 wavelengths produce a 4th wavelength in the signal. It is similar to the third order intercept point in electrical systems. Four wave mixing can be compared to… …
5Bloch wave — A Bloch wave or Bloch state, named after Felix Bloch, is the wavefunction of a particle (usually, an electron) placed in a periodic potential. It consists of the product of a plane wave envelope function and a periodic function ( periodic Bloch… …
6Plane wave expansion method — (PWE) refers to a computational technique in Electromagnetics,solve the Maxwell s equations by formulating an Eigenvalue problem out of it. This method isa popular among Photonic Crystal community, as a method of solving for the band structure… …
7Phased array — This article is about general theory and electromagnetic phased array. For the ultrasonic and medical imaging application, see phased array ultrasonics. In wave theory, a phased array is a group of antennas in which the relative phases of the… …
