AI Thread Summary
Plasmonics is an intriguing field for a group project, particularly for third-year electrical engineering students. Suggestions for project ideas include exploring the simulation of plasmonic waveguides or investigating surface plasmon resonance for sensor applications using MATLAB. Another potential project could involve modeling the interaction of light with metallic nanoparticles to study their optical properties. Collaborating on these simulations could enhance understanding of plasmonic phenomena. Engaging with these concepts can lead to valuable insights and practical applications in the field.

So I'm a third year EE student and we have this thing called a "group project", where we work part times in groups of 2-3 students on a topic. Anyways I have been reading up a bit on plasmonics and I find it very interesting, so I was wondering if anyone might have an idea of some sort of project one could do on the topic? I'm guessing it would have to be mainly based on MATLAB simulation, but if anyone has any ideas, that would be greatly appreciated..

Very basic question. Consider a 3-terminal device with terminals say A,B,C. Kirchhoff Current Law (KCL) and Kirchhoff Voltage Law (KVL) establish two relationships between the 3 currents entering the terminals and the 3 terminal's voltage pairs respectively. So we have 2 equations in 6 unknowns. To proceed further we need two more (independent) equations in order to solve the circuit the 3-terminal device is connected to (basically one treats such a device as an unbalanced two-port...
suppose you have two capacitors with a 0.1 Farad value and 12 VDC rating. label these as A and B. label the terminals of each as 1 and 2. you also have a voltmeter with a 40 volt linear range for DC. you also have a 9 volt DC power supply fed by mains. you charge each capacitor to 9 volts with terminal 1 being - (negative) and terminal 2 being + (positive). you connect the voltmeter to terminal A2 and to terminal B1. does it read any voltage? can - of one capacitor discharge + of the...
Thread 'Weird near-field phenomenon I get in my EM simulation'
I recently made a basic simulation of wire antennas and I am not sure if the near field in my simulation is modeled correctly. One of the things that worry me is the fact that sometimes I see in my simulation "movements" in the near field that seems to be faster than the speed of wave propagation I defined (the speed of light in the simulation). Specifically I see "nodes" of low amplitude in the E field that are quickly "emitted" from the antenna and then slow down as they approach the far...
