The reciprocity relationship describing the relations among the fields resulting from the interchange of point sources and receivers may be extended to the seismic case. Seismic reciprocity can be described either in terms of the scalar product of the vectors representing the excitation of the source and the field at the receiver, or in terms of a Green’s tensor describing these two quantities. Theoretical reciprocity relations give no information concerning reciprocity in the cases for which the scalar product vanishes. A simple experiment in the vector case demonstrates that reciprocity is not obtained when the scalar product of the two vectors vanishes.

Many nanophotonic devices rely on the excitation of photonic resonances to enhance light-matter interaction. The understanding of the resonances is therefore of a key importance to facilitate the design of such devices. These resonances may be analyzed by use of the quasi-normal mode (QNM) theory. Here, we illustrate how QNM analysis may help study and design resonant nanophotonic devices. We will in particular use the QNM expansion of far-field quantities based on Riesz projection to design optical antennas.

A new method is presented that rapidly evaluates the many Green’s tensor integrals encountered in three‐dimensional electromagnetic modeling using an integral equation. Application of a fast Hankel transform (FHT) algorithm (Anderson, 1982) is the basis for the new solution, where efficient and accurate computation of Hankel transforms are obtained by related and lagged convolutions (linear digital filtering). The FHT algorithm is briefly reviewed and compared to earlier convolution algorithms written by the author. The homogeneous and layered half‐space cases for the Green’s tensor integrals are presented in a form so that the FHT can be easily applied in practice. Computer timing runs comparing the FHT to conventional direct convolution methods are discussed, where the FHT’s performance was about 6 times faster for a homogeneous half‐space, and about 108 times faster for a five‐layer half‐space. Subsequent interpolation after the FHT is called is required to compute specific values of the tensor integrals at selected transform arguments; however, due to the relatively small lagged convolution interval used (same as the digital filter’s), a simple and fast interpolation is sufficient (e.g., by cubic splines).
