Abstract

Spatially dispersive (also known as non‐local) electromagnetic media are
considered where the parameters defining the permittivity relation vary periodically.
Maxwell's equations give rise to a difference equation corresponding to the Floquet modes.
A complete set of approximate solutions is calculated which are valid when the
inhomogeneity is small. This is applied to inhomogeneous wire media. A new feature arises when considering spatially dispersive media, that is the existence of coupled modes.
