Charging capacitor If the capacitor plates are very close together, the electric field is: For the loop L: For the loop R:
Maxwell’s Equations in Matter In the static case: (polarization current) Gauss’s law
Ampere’s law with Maxwell’s correction displacement current Those Maxwell’s equations must be supplemented by constitutive relations, e.g.:
Boundary Conditions In general, electric and magnetic fields are discontinuous at a boundary between two different media These equations are the basis for the theory of reflection and refraction
