The time harmonic form of the wave equation is the Helmholtz Equation ∇2E + n2(r, ω)k2E = 0 k = ω/c0 is the free-space wavenumber. n2(r, ω) = 1 + χ(r, ω) is the index of refraction Solutions are determined by specifying a geometry, choosing an appropriate coordinate system, and applying the boundary conditions.

Plane Wave Dispersion Relation -cont.

As the field propagates a distance L in the ˆ β direction, the amplitude of the field is multiplied by ejβ(ω)L corresponding to a phase shift of φL(ω) = β(ω)L if β(ω) is real. This phase shift does not change the functional form of the solution. → Plane wave solutions are the modes or eigenfunctions of an unbounded, linear medium ejβ(ω)L is the eigenvalue. Arbitrary solutions can be constructed as a superposition of these solutions
