Abstract

A theory of surface plasmon-polariton wave propagation along an interface of an optically active medium and metal or metamaterial has been developed. It is shown that optical activity leads to changing of cross section and polarization of the surface modes, whereas the propagation constant in first approximation does not depend on the gyrotropy coefficient.
