Applied Electrodynamics LLC Details
Applied Electrodynamics LLC offers consulting services for commercial, industrial, and research applications of classical electromagnetic (EM) scattering. Services include computational modeling, data analysis, visualization of the interaction of electromagnetic waves with complex-material systems across the EM spectrum, and the design of instrumentation employing scattering diagnostics. Fundamentally, all applications involving EM scattering, wether at radio or optical frequencies, are governed by Maxwell's theory. This theory describes how an object transforms incident EM radiation into the measured radiation quantities of interest. For example, a collimated laser beam incident upon an aerosol particle is generally scattered over all directions. If the way that this redistribution of light is known theoretically, a measurement of the scattered light over angle can be compared to the theoretical description to reveal physical characteristics of the particle; such is the gist of EM scattering used as a remote-sensing modality. Yet, despite its long history and wide use, Maxwell's theory remains difficult to apply to many physical systems of interest. The team at Applied Electrodynamics LLC has over 15 years of experience with analytical and computational methods to solve the MEs for a wide variety of physical systems in addition to related laboratory experimentation. Analytical modeling capabilities include Mie theory (spherical objects), fibers/cylinders, and planar structures. Computational capabilities are much broader including single and multiple objects of arbitrary shape with size on the order of the wavelength of radiation. A wide variety of object materials can be modeled as well. Applied Electrodynamics LLC also offers services to develop instrument designs that employ EM scattering and are customized to the user's needs.
