Characteristics of TE Surface Waves in a Plasma Medium Bounded by Nonlinear Metamaterials

The characteristics of nonlinear transverse electric surface waves are analyzed in a plasma medium bounded by Kerr-type double-negative metamaterials. In this connection, the electric and the magnetic eld components, the dispersion relation, and the power ow in the direction of propagation are derived. The dispersion relation and the power ow are numerically analyzed for variations in different parameters of the guiding structure. We also examine the special cases for nonlinear single-negative metamaterials.
