This document discusses boundary conditions for electromagnetic fields. It introduces three types of boundary conditions: dielectric-dielectric, conductor-dielectric, and conductor-free space. For a dielectric-dielectric boundary, the tangential electric fields are continuous across the boundary (E1t=E2t) and the normal electric displacement fields are also continuous (D1n=D2n) unless there is a surface charge. Boundary conditions restrict the electromagnetic fields to ensure continuity across different materials.

INTRODUCTION ON BOUNDARY CONDITION When an electromagnetic field faces an abrupt change in the permittivity and permeability, certain conditions on electric and magnetic fields on the interface are to be respected for the continuity. These conditions of continuity are known as the boundary conditions for the electromagnetic field. TYPES OF BOUNDARY CONDITIONS Dielectric-dielectric boundary condition. Conductor-dielectric boundary condition. Conductor-free space boundary condition. DIELECTRIC-DIELECTRIC BOUNDARY CONDITION Consider the E field existing in a region consisting of two different dielectrics. Figure E1 and E2 in media 1 and 2 can be decomposed as E1=E1t+E1n E2=E2t+E2n For rectangular dielectric material. There are two medium having two different permitivity e1 and e2. ∆w is the length of the material. ∆h is the height of the material. Et are the tangential parameters. En are the normal parts. Due to two different mediums there are E1t and E1n tangential and normal parts of medium 1. Same in medium 2. Suppose we apply maxwell’s equation to the closed path ABCD. Assuming that the path is very small with respect to the variation E we obtain.
0=E1t∆w-E1n ∆h/2-E2n ∆h/2-E2t ∆w+E2n ∆h/2+E1n
∆h/2
From this equation we obtain
E1t=E2t Similarly from figure 1 there is cylindrical dielectric material. Whose height is ∆h and surface is ∆s. Assume the path ABCD first from A-B material is been divided in two medium so ∆h will be divided in two parts. This direction is in direction of E1n and E2n so we can say that D2n ∆h/2+D1n ∆h/2. Then the whole equation will become ∆Q= ρs ∆S=D1n∆S-D2n∆S D1n-D2n= ρs Where ρs is the free charge density placed deliberately at the boundary . It should be borne in mind that equation D1n-D2n= ρs is based on the assumption that D is directed from region 2 to region 1 and equation must be applied accordingly. If no free charge exist at interface ρs =0 and equation becomes D1n=D2n These conditions are helpful in determining the field on one side of the boundary if the field on the other side is known. The conditions will be dictated by the type of material the media are made of. THANK YOU
