For the Maxwell's equations in a Havriliak-Negami (H-N) dispersive medium, the associated energy dissipation law has not been settled at both continuous level and discrete level. In this paper, we rigorously show that the energy of the H-N model can be bounded by the initial energy so that the model is well-posed. We analyse a backward Euler-type semi-discrete scheme, and prove that the modified discrete energy decays monotonically in time. Such a strong stability ensures that the scheme is unconditionally stable. We also introduce a fast temporal convolution algorithm to alleviate the burden of the history dependence in the polarisation relation involving the singular kernel with the Mittag-Leffler function with three parameters. We provide ample numerical results to demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of a full-discrete scheme via a spectra-Galerkin method in two spatial dimension. Finally, we consider an interesting application in the recovery of complex relative permittivity and some related physical quantities.
