Abstract

The characteristics of TM modes guided by a diffuse interface between a metamaterial and an ordinary dielectric are studied. It is shown that a strong increase in the electric field in the transition layer is possible. Dependences of the wavenumbers on the thickness of the transition layer are calculated. A relation-ship between the characteristics of the modes in the case of abrupt and diffuse interfaces between the media are considered.
