Abstract

A normal mode analysis has been employed to calculate the transmission and reflection coefficients for a surface polariton propagating along the interface between a surface-active medium and a dielectric medium and crossing a boundary into a second dielectric medium. The efficiencies of conversion of the surface polariton into transmitted and reflected bulk waves of both s and p polarization are also investigated.
