Comparison of tunneling times in isotropic and anisotropic media
Last modified: 2011-11-29
Abstract
In this paper, a comparative analysis of the tunneling times of EM wave propagating in isotropic and anisotropic media is presented. It is shown that due to the presence of anisotropy, two peaks emerge in the dependence of the dwell time on the incident wave frequency, one of which corresponds to the peaks of absorption and the group delay, while the other one is a consequence of anisotropy.
