Grating-coupled excitation of the Uller–Zenneck surface wave in the optical regime
Grating-coupled excitation of the Uller–Zenneck surface wave in the optical regime
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 being dissipative. A practical configuration involving the plane-wave illumination of a planar interface of the two …
