Abstract
We study in detail the properties of the recently predicted magnetoplasmon excitations localized near the lateral surface of a semi-infinite superlattice. The dispersion relation of these surface modes is obtained both by a simple approximate method and by a numerical technique capable of arbitrary precision. Possible experimental observation of the surface excitation spectrum is discussed.Keywords
