Terahertz Engineering
The Poynting vector is a mathematical representation of the directional energy flux (the rate of energy transfer per unit area) of an electromagnetic field. It provides insight into how electromagnetic energy propagates through space and is defined as the cross product of the electric field vector and the magnetic field vector, scaled by the permeability of free space. This concept is essential in understanding energy transport in systems where terahertz radiation is involved.
congrats on reading the definition of Poynting vector. now let's actually learn it.
