Abstract

A study is made of surface waves of the potential type propagating along the interface between a metal and a plasma of nonuniform density, with the thermal motion of the electrons taken into account. Dispersion relation for these waves are derived and solved for a linear plasma density profile. The influence of the nonuniformity of the plasma density on the dispersion properties of the waves is studied. Cases of negative and positive gradients are considered.
