In order to ascertain conditions for surface-wave propagation guided by the planar interface of an isotropic dielectric material and a sculptured nematic thin film (SNTF) with periodic nonhomogeneity, we formulated a boundary-value problem,…
Surface waves, named here as Dyakonov-Tamm waves, can exist at the planar interface of an isotropic dielectric material and a chiral sculptured thin film (STF). Due to the periodic nonhomogeneity of a chiral STF, the range of the refractive…
The planar interface of an ordinary, isotropic, homogeneous, dielectric material and a hyperbolic, dielectric, structurally chiral material can support the propagation of one or multiple Dyakonov-Tamm waves, at a specified frequency and…
The propagation of Dyakonov surface waves guided by the planar interface of (i) an isotropic dielectric material and (ii) a homogenized uniaxial dielectric composite material comprising both passive and active component materials was…
The propagation of Dyakonov-Tamm (DT) surface waves guided by the planar interface of two nondissipative materials $A$ and $B$ was investigated theoretically and numerically, via the corresponding canonical boundary-value problem. Material…
We report the prediction of a new type of Dyakonov surface waves that propagate along the flat strip of the interface between two dielectrics with negative anisotropy. It is shown that the surface waves condition is satisfied for negatively…
A configuration to excite the Uller-Zenneck surface electromagnetic waves at the planar interfaces of homogeneous and isotropic dielectric materials is proposed and theoretically analyzed. The Uller-Zenneck waves are surface waves that can…
The planar interface of an isotropic homogeneous metal and an ambichiral dielectric material can guide surface-plasmon-polariton waves. The planar interface of an isotropic, homogeneous dielectric material and an ambichiral dielectric…
We present the general analytical theory for Dyakonov surface waves at the interface of a biaxial anisotropic dielectric with an isotropic medium. We demonstrate that these surface waves can be divided into todo distinct classes, with…
Solutions of the boundary-value problem for electromagnetic waves guided by a layer of a homogeneous and isotropic (metal or dielectric) material sandwiched between a structurally chiral material (SCM) and a periodically multi-layered…
Highly directional and lossless surface wave has significant potential applications in the two-dimensional photonic circuits and devices. Here we experimentally demonstrate a selective Dyakonov surface wave coupling at the interface between…
We analyze the existence of localized waves in the vicinities of the interface between two dielectrics, provided one of them is uniaxial and lossy. We found two families of surface waves, one of them approaching the well-known Dyakonov…
Two numerical studies, one based on a canonical boundary-value problem and the other based on a reflection-transmission problem, revealed that the propagation of high-phase-speed Dyakonov-Tamm (HPSDT) surface waves may be supported by the…
The Uller-Zenneck wave has been theoretically predicted to exist at the planar interface of two homogeneous dielectric materials of which only one must be dissipative. Experimental confirmation of this century-old prediction was obtained…
The excitation of the Uller-Zenneck surface wave in the optical regime was theoretically investigated for planar as well as periodically corrugated interfaces of two homogeneous, isotropic dielectric materials, with only one of the two…
Electromagnetic surface waves supported by an isotropic chiral material were investigated via the associated canonical boundary-value problem. Specifically, two scenarios were considered: surface waves guided by the planar interface of an…
Dyakonov surface wave existing at the interface with anisotropy offers a promising way of guiding light in two-dimension with almost no loss. However, predicted decades ago, the experimental demonstration of the Dyakonov surface wave seems…
Surface waves supported by structured metallic surfaces, i.e. metasurfaces, have drawn wide attention recently. They are promising for various applications ranging from integrated photonic circuits to imaging and bio-sensing in various…
A new analytical approach to description of electromagnetic waves in nonmagnetic anisotropic media is presented. Amplitudes of their reflection and refraction at interfaces and also reflection and transmission of plane parallel plates are…
We investigate surface waves at the boundary between a semi-infinite layered metal-dielectric nanostructure cut normally to the layers and a semi-infinite dielectric. Spatial dispersion properties of such a nanostructure can be dramatically…
