Propagation of Electromagnetic Waves On the Lateral Surface of a Ferrite/Semiconductor Superlattice At Quantum Hall-Effect Conditions - Abstract

Abstract

The principal result of this work is the existence of coupled magnon-plasmon surface polaritons, i.e., nonradiative spin-electromagnetic surface waves on the lateral surface of a superlattice that consists of the alternating layers of GaAs-AlGaAs quantum well system and ferromagnetic insulator. Dispersion relations for the waves are considered at quantum Hall-effect conditions when a static quantizing magnetic field is perpendicular to the quantum well plane.
