This book presents the theory of electromagnetic (EM) waves for upper undergraduate, graduate and PhD-level students in engineering. It focuses on physics and microwave theory based on Maxwell's equations and the boundary conditions important for studying the operation of waveguides and resonators in a wide frequency range, namely, from approx. 10**9 to 10**16 hertz. The author also highlights various current topics in EM field theory, such as plasmonic (comprising a noble metal) waveguides and analyses of attenuations by filled waveguide dielectrics or semiconductors and also by conducting waveguide walls. Featuring a wide variety of illustrations, the book presents the calculated and schematic distributions of EM fields and currents in waveguides and resonators. Further, test questions are presented at the end of each chapter.

Prof. Liudmila Nickelson has been working for Vilnius Gediminas Technical University since 2006. From 1973 until 2016, she also worked for the Semiconductor Physics Institute, which was integrated into the Centre for Physical Sciences and Technology (Lithuania). She has over 40 years of experience as a researcher in the area of electromagnetics. She has also contributed to a number of books. Her research interests include the design and modelling of microwave integrated circuits, modelling semiconductor and ferrite devices, and the development of new methods based on singular integral equations (SIE).
