Abstract
We demonstrate that gradual interfaces between lossy conductive media support propagation of a novel kind of surface electromagnetic wave, which is different from the more well-known surface plasmon polaritons. Potential applications of these novel surface waves to monitor water surface and the seawater-ice interface, as well as other environmental sensing applications in the RF and optical domain are discussed.
