New Class of Surface Magnon Polaritons in Enantiomeric Antiferromagnetic Structures
By
Progress In Electromagnetics Research B, Vol. 39, 55-69, 2012
Abstract
A novel class of surface magnon polaritons supported in identical enantiomeric antiferromagnetic structures is presented. The surface waves arise due to bianisotropy. The existence of two distinct surface modes with unusual dispersion and polarization properties is predicted. The role of losses is investigated and the propagation length of the surface waves is determined.
