✦ Synopsis


A formalism is developed to find the photon dispersion relations in superlattice systems having layers with low optical symmetry or having magnetic layers. This formalism is an exact solution of the first order Maxwell's equations including all the information for the anisotropic optical response tensors and including the coupling of the TE and TM modes. Based on a (4 \times 4) matrix approach for solving complicated reflection and transmission problems in stratified anisotropic media and employing a plane wave expansion of the field components to take into account the periodicity of the superlattices, the photon dispersion relation can be obtained numerically with a simple algorithm. This result is useful in predicting the absence of certain electromagnetic modes along the superlattice axis, and in identifying observed resonances with a particular excitations of the system.

A transmission line matrix (TLM) model suitable to simulate the propagation of waves in moving anisotropic continuous media is presented. As is well known, an electromagnetic wave propagating in a general medium, moving with respect to its source, experiences a drag by the own medium, which involves
