The paper demonstrates the results of approximate calculations on the establishment of basic features of the propagation of standing transversal electromagnetic waves (EMWs) and standing longitudinal de Broglie electronic waves in a homogeneous not massive non-magnetic metallic conductor of finite dimensions (the radius r0 and the length l0 >>r0) with the alternating axial-flow current of conductivity of i0(t) of different peak-temporal parameters. The correlation for the rated estimation of the average velocity of propagation of the standing transversal EMWs and standing longitudinal de Broglie electronic waves in a metal (alloy) of the indicated conductor is presented. It is shown that quantized standing transversal EMWs arising in a metallic conductor of finite dimensions substantially differ from ordinary transversal EMWs, propagated in the conducting environments of unlimited dimensions. An important feature of the standing transversal EMWs in the examined conductor is the fact that their tension of an axial-flow electric-field advances by a phase their tension of an azimuthal magnetic-field on the corner of π/2. It was established that in the standing transversal EMWs of the used conductor the energy of their electric field only passes into the energy of their magnetic field and vice versa. Therefore the standing transversal EMWs do not transfer the flows of the electromagnetic energy on the surface of the studied conductor.


The influence of the earth’s magnetic field on the propagation of wireless waves in the ionosphere has stimulated interest in the problem of the propagation of electromagnetic waves through a non-isotropic medium which is stratified in planes. Although the differential equations of such a medium have been elegantly deduced by Hartree,f it appears that no solution of them has yet been published for a medium which is both non-isotropic and non-homogeneous. Thus the work of Gans and Hartree dealt only with a stratified isotropic medium, while in the mathematical theory of crystal-optics the non-isotropic medium is always assumed to be homogeneous. In the same way Appleton’s magneto-ionic theory of propagation in an ionized medium under the influence of a magnetic field is confined to consideration of the “ characteristic ”waves which can be propagated through a homogeneous medium without change of form. In applying to stratified non-isotropic media these investigations concerning homogeneous non-isotropic media difficulty arises from the fact that the polarizations of the characteristic waves in general vary with the constitution of the medium, and it is not at all obvious that there exist waves which are propagated independently through the stratified medium and which are approximately characteristic at each stratum. The existence of such waves has usually been taken for granted, although for the ionosphere doubt has been cast upon this assumption by Appleton and Naismith, who suggest that we might “ expect the components ( i. e ., characteristic waves) to be continually splitting and resplitting”, even if the increase of electron density “ takes place slowly with increase of height”. It is clear that, until the existence of independently propagated approximately characteristic waves has been established, at any rate for a slowly-varying non-isotropic medium, no mathematical justification exists for applying Appleton's magnetoionic theory to the ionosphere. It is with the provision of this justification that we are primarily concerned in the present paper. This problem has been previously considered by Försterling and Lassen,f but we feel that their work does not carry conviction because they did not base their calculations on the differential equations for a non-homo-geneous medium, and were apparently unable to deal with the general case in which the characteristic polarizations vary with the constitution of the medium.

For inhomogeneous mediums the оptical Magnus effect has been derived. The metamaterials fabricated from amorphous ferromagnet Co-Fe-Cr-B-Si microwires are shown to exhibit a negative refractive index for electromagnetic waves over wide scale of GHz frequencies. Optical properties and optical Magnus effect of such metamaterials are tunable by an external magnetic field.

Gyromagnetic photonic crystal (GPC) offers a promising way to realize robust transport of electromagnetic waves against backscattering from various disorders, perturbations and obstacles due to existence of unique topological electromagnetic states. The dc magnetic field exerting upon the GPC brings about the time-reversal symmetry breaking, splits the band degeneracy and opens band gaps where the topological chiral edge states (CESs) arise. The band gap can originate either from long-range Bragg-scattering effect or from short-range localized magnetic surface plasmon resonance (MSP). These topological edge states can be explored to construct backscattering-immune one-way waveguide and other nonreciprocal electromagnetic devices. In this paper we review our recent theoretical and experimental studies of the unique electromagnetic properties of nonreciprocal devices built in GPCs. We will discuss various basic issues like experimental instrumental setup, sample preparations, numerical simulation methods, tunable properties against magnetic field, band degeneracy breaking and band gap opening and creation of topological CESs. We will investigate the unidirectional transport properties of one-way waveguide under the influence of waveguide geometries, interface morphologies, intruding obstacles, impedance mismatch, lattice disorders, and material dissipation loss. We will discuss the unique coupling properties between one-wave waveguide and resonant cavities and their application as novel one-way bandstop filter and one-way channel-drop filter. We will also compare the CESs created in the Bragg-scattering band gap and the MSP band gap under the influence of lattice disorders. These results can be helpful for designing and exploring novel nonreciprocal electromagnetic devices for optical integration and information processing.
