It is simple to verify that (x, 0) = (a, y) = (x, x) = 0, so that all boundary
conditions on the triangle are indeed satised. The cuto frequencies are given
by (1). Note here that the Z
2
projection removes the m = n modes and also
antisymmetrizes m with n. As a result, the integer labels m and n may be taken
to satisfy the condition m > n > 0.
The analysis for TE modes is similar. However, for Neumann conditions, we take
cosine combinations as well as a Z
2
-even eigenfunction. This gives

with identical cuto frequencies as in (1). This time, however, the labels m and
n may be taken to satisfy m n 0 (except m = n = 0 is not allowed).
b) For the lowest modes of each type calculate the attenuation constant, assuming
that the walls have large, but nite, conductivity. Compare the result with that
for a square guide of side a made from the same material.
The attenuation coecients are determined by power and power loss. We begin
with TM modes. For the power, we need to compute

It is perhaps easiest to compute this by integrating over the square and then
dividing by two for the triangle. This is because the integration separates into x
and y integrals, and we may use orthogonality

The factor of 1/2 is for the triangle, while the factor of 2 is because two non-
vanishing terms arise when squaring the integrand in (2). (Recall that m = n for
TM modes.) This gives an expression for the power

so that the geometrical factor
mn
= 1 is trivial. Note that the energy loss
calculation along the diagonal of the triangle gives the same result as along the
square edges. As a result, the geometrical factor
mn
= 1 is independent of
whether the waveguide is square or right triangular. This is why the triangular
TM result is identical to the square TM result, at least up to the ratios C/A =
2(2 +
2)/a 6.83/a for the triangle and C/A = 4/a for the square.

In all cases,
mn
= 1, which is the same for the triangle or the square waveg-
uide. For
mn
, the factor is essentially a geometric combination of contributions
along the perimeter of either 1 or 1/2 depending on the particular mode and its
degeneracies.

R and length L, with at end faces.

Note that the p = 0 modes are independent of R/L. Clearly the same mode
does not always have the lowest frequency. The cross-over points are accidental
degeneracies, and are not related to any particular symmetry of the cylinder.

b) If R = 2 cm, L = 3 cm, and the cavity is made of pure copper, what is the
numerical value of Q for the lowest resonant mode?
For this geometry, it turns out the lowest mode is the TM

mode. We thus
calculate the Q factor for TM

modes. We start with the stored energy

8.7 A resonant cavity consists of the empty space between two perfectly conducting, con-
centric spherical shells, the smaller having an outer radius a and the larger an inner
radius b. As shown in Section 8.9, the azimuthal magnetic eld has a radial depen-
