Propagation of waves along diffuse boundary of nonlinear metamaterials

Autors: 
Manenkov Aleksandr Bencionovich, P.L. Kapitza Institute for Physical Problems of Russian Academy of Sciences
Abstract: 

The characteristics of surface TM modes, guided by diffuse interface between two nonlinear media (metamaterial and conventional dielectric), are investigated. The field distributions and dependencies of propagation constants on parameters of the transition layer are calculated. Effects, caused by media nonlinearity, are studied.

Key words: 
Surface electromagnetic modes
nonlinear metamaterials
diffuse boundaries of media interfaces
