Work out the theory of TM modes for a rectangular wave guide. In particular, find the longitudinal electric field, the cutoff frequencies, and the wave and group velocities. Find the ratio of the lowest TM cutoff frequency to the lowest TE cutoff frequency, for a given wave guide. [Caution: What is the lowest TM mode?]

Short Answer

Expert verified

The longitudinal electric field is Ez=E0sinmxasinnya, the cut-off frequency is

mn=cma2+nb2, the wave velocity isV=C1-mn2, and the ratio of the lowest TM cutoff frequency to the lowest TE cutoff frequency for a given waveguide is 1110=1+ab2.

Step by step solution

01

Expression for the components of an electric and magnetic field along the z-axis in a rectangular wave:

Write the expression for the components of electric and magnetic fields along the z-axis in a rectangular wave.

[2x2+2y2+c2=k2]Ez=0[2x2+2y2+c2-k2]Bz=0

Here,Ez is the longitudinal component of electric field and Bzis the longitudinal component of a magnetic field, is the frequency of a wave, c is the speed of light, and k is the wavenumber.

02

Determine the longitudinal electric field:

For the TM wave, the value of the longitudinal component of the magnetic field is zero.

Write the boundary conditions at the wall.

E=0,B=0

Let,Ez(x,y)=X(x)Y(y)

Here, X(x)=Asin(kxx)+Bcos(Kxx)

At walls Ez=0, then at x=0, the value of X and B will be,

X=0B=0

Hence, it is known that:

kx=ma;m=1,2,3ky=na;n=1,2,3.

So, the longitudinal electric field will be,

Ez=E0sinmxasinnya

03

Determine the cut off frequency and wave velocity:

Write the expression for wave number.

k=c2-2ma2+nb2

Hence, the cut off frequency will be,

mn=cma2+nb2

Write the expression for the wave velocity,

v=k 鈥︹ (1)

Write the expression for the lowest cut-off frequency (11)for modeTM11.

11=c1a2+1b2 鈥︹ (2)

Hence, the wavenumber in terms of the cut-off frequency will be,

k=1c2-mn2

Substitute 11=c1a2+1b2andk=1c2-mn2in equation (1).

v=c1a2+1b21c2-mn2

V=C1-mn2

04

Determine the group velocity:

Write the expression for the group velocity .

Vg=1dkd

Substitute k=1c2-mn2in the above expression.

vg=1dd1c2-mn2Vg=c1-mn2

Write the expression for the lowest cut-off frequency for Transverse electric mode (TE).

10=ca 鈥︹ (3)

Take the ratio of equations (2) and (3).

1110=c1a2+1b2ca1110=1+ab2

Therefore, the longitudinal electric field is Ez=E0sinmxasinnya,

the cut-off frequency is mn=cma2+nb2, the wave velocity is

V=C1-mn2, the group velocity is Vg=c11-mn2, and the ratio of the

lowest TM cutoff frequency to the lowest TE cutoff frequency for a given wave guide is1110=1+ab2 .

Question:Equation 9.36 describes the most general linearly polarized wave on a string. Linear (or "plane") polarization (so called because the displacement is parallel to a fixed vector n) results from the combination of horizontally and vertically polarized waves of the same phase (Eq. 9.39). If the two components are of equal amplitude, but out of phase by (say,=0,h=90,), the result is a circularly polarized wave. In that case:

(a) At a fixed point, show that the string moves in a circle about the axis. Does it go clockwise or counter clockwise, as you look down the axis toward the origin? How would you construct a wave circling the other way? (In optics, the clockwise case is called right circular polarization, and the counter clockwise, left circular polarization.)

(b) Sketch the string at time t =0.

(c) How would you shake the string in order to produce a circularly polarized wave?

Show that the modeTE00 cannot occur in a rectangular wave guide. [Hint: In this casec=k , so Eqs. 9.180 are indeterminate, and you must go back to Eq. 9.179. Show that is a constant, and hence鈥攁pplying Faraday鈥檚 law in integral form to a cross section鈥攖hatBz=0 , so this would be a TEM mode.]

Suppose string 2 is embedded in a viscous medium (such as molasses), which imposes a drag force that is proportional to its (transverse) speed:

Fdrag=-Yftz.

(a) Derive the modified wave equation describing the motion of the string.

(b) Solve this equation, assuming the string vibrates at the incident frequency. That is, look for solutions of the form f~(z,t)=eitF~(z).

(c) Show that the waves are attenuated (that is, their amplitude decreases with increasing z). Find the characteristic penetration distance, at which the amplitude is of its original value, in terms of ,T,and .

(d) If a wave of amplitude A , phase ,= 0 and frequency is incident from the left (string 1), find the reflected wave鈥檚 amplitude and phase.

In the complex notation there is a clever device for finding the time average of a product. Suppose f(r,t)=Acos(kr-t+a)and g(r,t)=Bcos(kr-t+b). Show that <fg>=(1/2)Re(fg~), where the star denotes complex conjugation. [Note that this only works if the two waves have the same k and, but they need not have the same amplitude or phase.] For example,

<u>=14Re(0E~E~+10B~B~)and<S>=120Re(E~B).~ and .

The "inversion theorem" for Fourier transforms states that

(Z)=-(k)eikzdk(k)=12-(z)e-ikzdz

Use this to determine A(k), in Eq. 9.20, in terms of f(z,0)andf*(z,0)
