摘要
We report the existence of families of nonlinear TE-polarized surface waves propagating along the interface between different conventional and left-handed electromagnetic media as well as between two left-handed media. Both nonlinear/nonlinear and linear/nonlinear interfaces are considered. The constraints for the mode existence are identified and the energy flow associated with the surface modes is calculated.
