Nonlinear surface waves in left-handed materials.
We study both linear and nonlinear surface waves localized at the interface separating a left-handed (LH) medium (i.e., a medium with both negative dielectric permittivity and negative magnetic permeability) and a conventional [or right-handed (RH)] dielectric medium. We demonstrate that the interface can support both TE- and TM-polarized surface waves-surface polaritons, and we study their pro...
متن کاملLeft-handed interfaces for electromagnetic surface waves.
We show that surface electromagnetic waves (SEMWs) propagating along two-dimensional (2D) interfaces separating different metamaterials can behave analogously to 3D electromagnetic waves in either usual or left-handed media, depending on the permeabilities and/or permittivities of the two materials forming the interface. We derive the conditions when SEMWs carry energy opposite to the phase vel...
متن کاملNon-Linear Surface Waves At a Single Interface of Semimagnetic Semiconductor – Left Handed Materials (LHM)
The nonlinear characteristics of TE surface waves at microwave frequencies in a layered structure of non-linear semimagneticsemiconductor cover and left-handed material substrate have been investigated. Numerical analysis and derivation were carried out for the dispersion relation in its general form. The power flow has also been studied as a function of wave number for different frequencies an...
متن کاملAnalytical Investigation of TM Surface Waves in 1D Photonic Crystals Capped by a Self-Focusing Left-Handed Slab
In this paper, the localized TM surface waves of a nonlinear self-focusingleft-handed slab sandwiched between a uniform medium and a one-dimensionalphotonic crystal (1D PC) is analytically investigated. Our method is based on the firstintegral of the nonlinear Maxwell's equations. For the TM surface waves, the presenceof two electric field components makes the analysis difficult. Therefore, we ...
متن کاملOptical Dyakonov surface waves at magnetic interfaces.
We address the existence and properties of lossless surface waves that form at interfaces between magnetic and birefringent media. We show that the angular domain of existence of Dyakonov surface waves for magnetic interfaces is significantly larger than that for nonmagnetic ones. Our results have important implications for the experimental generation of surface waves and for their potential ap...
