A quintic complex Ginzburg-Landau equation is derived from a Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation and is used to describe the magnetization dynamics in a one-dimensional uni-axial ferromagnet. Trough the use of suitable approximations, we derive the magnetic solitary wave excitations solutions which...

Epsilon-negative (ENG) and mu-negative (MNG) materials are successfully realized by using composite right/left-handed transmission line (CRLH TL), based on which the photonic crystals were also constituted. The simulated and measured scattering parameters and phase shift indicate that the...

We establish rigorous upper and lower bounds for the speed of pulled fronts with a cut-off. For all reaction terms of KPP type a simple analytic upper bound is given. The lower bounds however depend on details of the reaction term. For a small cut-off parameter the two leading order terms in the...

We study the properties of thermal radiation emitted by a thin dielectric slab, employing the framework of macroscopic fluctuational electrodynamics. Particular emphasis is given to the analytical construction of the required dyadic Green's functions. Based on these, general expressions are...

We study the propagation of electromagnetic wave in piezoelectric period-doubling superlattices with using the generalized 4 × 4 transfer matrix method, and the dynamics of electromagnetic wave and acoustic wave is treated on equal footing. The band-gap structure trifurcates, which is...

We investigate the thermal radiation and thermal near-field energy density of a metal-coated semi-infinite body for different substrates. We show that the surface polariton coupling within the metal coating leads to an enhancement of the TM-mode part of the thermal near-field energy density when...

The transmission and reflection coefficients of two-dimensional semi-infinite solid-solid phononic crystal systems and fluid-fluid phononic waveguide structures have been investigated. The numerical results show that the transmission spectra for longitudinally and transversally polarized...
