Abstract :
Electromagnetics and optics knowledge yielded technologies in the early 1800s in terms of electric machinery, telegraphy, and optics. In 1864, James Clerk Maxwell completed the electromagnetic equations, now called Maxwell´s equations. They helped bridge the gap between optics and electromagnetics. Since then, Maxwell´s equations have undoubtedly profound impact on many modern science and technologies.
