“This reference provides a detailed theoretical framework for the modified system of Maxwell’s equations in anisotropic media, which is well-suited for advanced undergraduate or graduate students as well as scientists interested in the combined effects of dielectric and metal components for the resulting field. Readers with an interest in photonic crystals or surface waves will find a detailed analytical treatment on dispersion relationships, phase, and group velocities with possible group delays for hyperbolic metamaterials.” (Axel Mainzer Koenig, optica-opn.org, March 7, 2024)
