which is of the form 9.6, with 9 = (Aj2) sin[k(z - vt)] and h = (Aj2) sin[k(z + vt)].

The wave equation (Eq. 9.2) says 8 2
z = v-:18t 2. Look for solutions of the form j(z, t) = Z(z)T(t). Plug
.
where W ==kv. But we can combine the third term with the first, by allowing k to run negative (w = Iklv
remains positive); likewise the second and the fourth:
Because (in the end) we shall only want the the real part of j, it suffices to keep only one of these terms (since
k goes negative, both terms include wavestraveling in both directions); the second is traditional (though either
would do). Specifically,
Re(f) = i: [Re(Ad cos(kz + wt) - Im(Ad sin(kz + wt) + Re(A2) cos(kz - wt) - Im(A2) sin(kz - wt)] dk.
The first term, cos(kz + wt) = cos(-kz - wt), combines with the third, cos(kz - wt), since the negative k is
picked up in the other half of the range of integration, and the second, sin(kz+wt) = - sin( -kz -wt), combines
with the fourth for the same reason. So the general solution, for our purposes, can be written in the form
j(z, t) = i: A(k)ei(kz-U.ltJdk qed (the tildes remind us that we want the real part).

Adding these equations, we get 2gI( -VI t) = 1+ -

gT( -V2t)+K" or gT( -V2t) = ( VI + V2 ) gI( -VIt)+K,
(where K,I== -K, V2 ). Now gI(Z, t), gT(Z, t), and hR(Z, t) are each functions of a single variable u (in the
VI + V2
first case u =Z - VI t, in the second u =
Z - v2t, and in the third u = Z + VIt). Thus

Problem 9.14
Equation 9,78 is replaced by Eolx + EORllR = EOTllT,and Eq, 9.80 becomesEotY - EoR(zx fiR) =
(3EOT(zx llT), The y component of the first equation is EoR sin()R = EoT sin()T; the x component of the
second is EoR sin()R = -{3EoT sinDT, Comparing these two, we conclude that sin()R = sin()T = 0, and hence
eR= OT= 0, qed
Problem 9.15
Aeiax + Beibx = Ceicx for all x, so (using x = 0), A + B = C,
Differentiate: iaAeiax + ibBeibx = icCeicx, so (using x = 0), aA + bB = ca.
Differentiate again: -a2 Aeiax - b2Beibx = -c2Ceicx, so (using x = 0), a2A + b2B = c2C.
a2A + b2B = c(cC) = c(aA + bE); (A + B)(a2 A + b2B) = (A + B)c(aA + bE) = cC(aA + bE);
a2A2+ b2AB + a2AB + b2B2 = (aA + bB)2 = a2A2 + 2abAB + b2B2, or (a2 + b2 - 2ab)AB = 0, or
=
(a - b)2AB = 0, But A and B are nonzero, so a b. Therefore (A + B)eiax = Ceicx,
a(A + B) = cO, or aC = cO, so (sinceC f:.0) a = c. Conclusion:a = b= c. qed

with the incident wave, and the (real) amplitudes are related by EoT I = (~) EOt,1 The reflected wave is

Problem 9.27
Here Ez = 0 (TE) and w/c = k (n = m = 0), so Eq. 9.179(ii) => Ey = -cBx, Eq. 9.179(iii) =>Ex = cBy,
Eq. 9.179(v) => 8~z = i (kBy - ~Ex) = i (k_3y- ~By) = 0, Eq. 9.179(vi) => 8:Xz = i (kBx + ~Ey) =
i (kBx - ~Bx) = O. So 8:Xz = 8~z = 0, and since Bz is a function only of x and y, this says Bz is in fact
a constant (as Eq. 9.186 also suggests). Now Faraday's law (in integral form) says f E . dl = - ! ~~ . da,
and Eq. 9.176 => ~~ = -iwB, so f E. dl = iwf B. da. Applied to a cross-sectionof the waveguidethis gives
f E . dl = iwei(kz-",t) ! Bz da = iwBzei(kz-",t) (ab) (since Bz is constant, it comes outside the integral). But
if the boundary is just inside the metal, where E = 0, it follows that I Bz = 0.1So this would be a TEM mode,
which we already know cannot exist for this guide.

Problem 9.30
Following Sect. 9.5.2, the problem is to solve Eq. 9.181 with Ez =F0, Bz = 0, subject to the boundary
conditions 9.175, Let Ez(x,y) = X(x)Y(y); as before, we obtain X(x) = Asin(kxx) + Bcos(kxx). But the
boundary condition requires Ez =0 (and hence X = 0) when x =0 and x = a, so B =0 and kx = m7r/a.
But this time m = 1,2,3,... , but not zero, since m = 0 would kill X entirely, The same goes for Y(y), Thus
The rest is the same as for TE waves: U.lmn = c7rv(m/a)2 + (n/b)21 is the cutoff frequency, the wave

The charge and current on the outer conductor are precisely the opposite of these, since E = B = 0 inside I I

Add the first two to eliminate En : 2E1 = (1 + {3)Er + (1 - {3)El;
Add the last two to eliminate El : 2Ereik2d = (1 + a)ETeik3dj
Subtract the last two to eliminate Er : 2E1e-ik2d = (1 - a)ET eik3d.

Problem 9.38
Look for solutions of the form E = Eo(x, y, z)e-i"'t, B = Bo(x, y, z)e-i"'t, subject to the boundary condi-
tions Ell = 0, Bl. = 0 at all surfaces. Maxwell's equations, in the form of Eq. 9.177, give
V. E = 0 =?V. Eo = OJ V x E =
{ V. B = 0 =?V. Bo = OJ V x B = ~8t
-;~
=?V x Bo = -~Eo. }
=? V x Eo = iUJ~oj
From now on I'll leave off the subscript (0). The problem is to solve the (time independent) equations
V. E = OJ V x E = iUJ~j
{ V.B=Oj VxB=-~E. }
From V x E = iUJB it follows that I can get B once I know E, so I'll concentrate on the latter for the moment.

k; + k~ + k~ = - (UJ/C)2.The solution is
E:r;{x,y, z) = [Asin(kxx) + B cos(kxx)][Csin(kyY)+ D cos(kyy)][Esin(kzz) + F cos(kzz)].
But Ell = 0 at the boundaries =? Ex = 0 at y = 0 and z = 0, so D = F = 0, and Ex = 0 at y = band z = d, so
ky = mfIb and kz = l1fI d, where nand l are integers. A similar argument applies to Ey and Ez. Conclusion:
Ex (x, y, z) = [Asin(kxx) + B cos(kxx)]sin(kyY)sin(kzz),
Ey(x, y, z) = sin(kxx)[Csin(kyY)+ D cos(kyY)]sin(kzz),
Ez(x,y,z) = sin(kxx)sin(kyy)[Esin(kzz) + Fcos(kzz)],
where kx = m1fla. (Actually, there is no reason at this stage to assume that kx, ky, and kz are the same for
all three components, and I should really affix a second subscript (x for Ex, y for Ey, and z for Ez), but in a
moment we shall see that in fact they do have to be the same, so to avoid cumbersome notation I'll assume
they are from the start.)
NowV.E = 0 =? kx[A cos(kxx)-B sin(kxx)] sin(kyY) sin(kzz)+ky sin(kxx)[C cos(kyy)-D sin(kyY)]sin(kzz)+
kzsin(kxx) sin(kyy)[Ecos(kzz) - Fsin(kzz)] = O. In particular,putting in x = 0, kxAsin(kyY)sin(kzz)= 0,
and hence A = O. Likewise y = 0 =? C = 0 and z = 0 =? E = O. (Moreover, if the k's were not equal for different
178 CHAPTER 9. ELECTROMAGNETIC WAVES
components, then by Fourier analysis this equation could not be satisfied (for all x, y, and z) unless the other
three constants were also zero, and we'd be left with no field at all.) It follows that -(Bkx + Dky + Fkz) =a

The boxed equations satisfy all of Maxwell's equations, and they meet the boundary conditions. For TE
modes, we pick Ez = 0, so F = 0 (and hence Bkx + Dky = 0, leaving only the overall amplitude undetermined,
for given l, m, and n); for TM modes we want Bz = 0 (so Dkx - Bky = 0, again leaving only one amplitude
undetermined, since Bkx + Dky + Fkz = 0). In either case (TElmn or TM1mn), the frequency is given by
