On Circularly-Polarized Nonlinear Electromagnetic Waves

摘要

An exact solution of the nonlinear electromagnetic equations for a conservative nondispersive isotropic centro-symmetric dielectric is obtained, which has an especially simple form, i.e., a harmonic, circularly-polarized plane progressive wave. The normal incidence of such a wave at a plane interface is considered and also the propagation of such waves in a transversely isotropic, uniformly magnetized material. (Author)
