Abstract
It is demonstrated how nonlinear surface modes at the boundary of a cylindrical electronic medium are coupled to external constant or time-varying electric fields in the bounding dielectric. Exact equations governing the interaction are obtained and investigated numerically. It is found that the external field can drive only certain surface modes, in spite of the fact that all the modes are strongly coupled.Keywords
