Maxwell's equations form the foundation of classical electrodynamics and govern the behavior of electric and magnetic fields. When considering the interface between two dielectric media, it is crucial to determine the boundary conditions that describe how the fields behave at the surface separating them. These conditions arise from the general form of Maxwell’s equations, particularly in the context of the continuity and discontinuity of the fields at the boundary.

Maxwell's equations in the differential form are:

  1. Gauss's law for electricity: ∇⋅D=ρfree\nabla \cdot \mathbf{D} = \rho_{\text{free}}
  2. Gauss's law for magnetism: ∇⋅B=0\nabla \cdot \mathbf{B} = 0
  3. Faraday's law of induction: ∇×E=−∂B∂t\nabla \times \mathbf{E} = -\frac{\partial \mathbf{B}}{\partial t}
  4. Ampère's law (with Maxwell's correction): ∇×H=∂D∂t+Jfree\nabla \times \mathbf{H} = \frac{\partial \mathbf{D}}{\partial t} + \mathbf{J}_{\text{free}}
