Influence of Electromagnetic-Field Nonuniformity on The Interaction Between a H-Wave and a Thin Metal Layer

Resumo

The interaction between an electromagnetic H-wave and a thin metal layer is calculated taking into account the different reflection coefficients q₁ and q₂ of its surfaces at different angles θ of wave incidence in the case where the electric field is uniform. The influence of the dependence of the layer’s electrical conductivity on the electric-field nonuniformity on the characteristics of the field—layer interaction is taken into account. The behavior of the coefficients of reflection R, transmission T, and absorption A as functions of the external field frequency, the frequency of bulk collisions of electrons, and the wave incidence angle θ are analyzed.
