Left-Handed Surface Waves in a Photonic Structure

preprint2002arXivOpen access

Abstract

It is demonstrated that an isotropic left-handed medium can be constructed as a photonic structure consisting of two dielectric materials, one with positive and another with negative dielectric permittivities epsilon. Electromagnetic waves supported by this structure are the surface waves localized at the dielectric interfaces. These surface waves can be either surface phonons or surface plasmons. Two examples of negative epsilon materials are used: silicon carbide and free-electron gas.
