摘要：

The propagation of surface waves in a plasma with a diffuse boundary is considered. Three equations governing the evolution of the system are derived. If the excursion length of the electrons in the surface wave field is smaller than the width of the plasma-vacuum transition layer, it is found that typically the nonlinear density modifications in the boundary layer are more important than the previously investigated bulk nonlinearities.
