ECAPD9 - 9th European Conference on Application of Polar Dielectrics
The 9th European Conference on Applications of Polar Dielectrics (ECAPD) will be held in Roma, Italy, from tuesday
August 26th to friday August 29th 2008.
ECAPD is the principal european and international forum where the latest research and technological advances in the
field of polar dielectric materials are being presented and discussed.
The conference is the ninth in a series that started in Zürich (Switzerland) in 1988 and was followed by the editions in
London (UK) in 1992, Bled (Slovenia) in 1996, Montreux (Switzerland) in 1998, Jurmala (Latvia) in 2000, Aveiro
(Portugal) in 2002, Liberec (Czech Republic) in 2004, and Metz (France) in 2006.
The objective of ECAPD’9 is to achieve international and interdisciplinary exchange of information and cooperation
among researchers in academia, government laboratories, and industries, and to stimulate growth in the field of polar
dielectric materials and applications.

Wide band negative magnetic permeability materials (NMPM) with composite metalsemiconductor structures based on the Drude model, and applications to negative-refractive index (NIM)
Asymmetric transmission of some two-dimensional photonic crystals
Some particular geometries are discussed in which the transmission spectrum is different for light traveling from right to left or from left to right. The conditions that allow this transmission asymmetry are discussed. (c) 2007 Optical Society of America
Photothermal depth profiling by thermal wave backscattering and genetic algorithms
Photothermal depth profiling is usually applied to inhomogeneous materials to localize the optical inhomogeneity or retrieve the thermal effusivity depth profile by simply monitoring the photothermal signal after the pump beam excitation. In this paper the different kinds of inverse problems related to photothermal depth profiling are discussed, and the solutions given by thermal wave backscattering (TWBS) and genetic algorithms (GAs) are compared. Finally, the different performances and limits of validity on known linear profiles are compared
