Propagation of polaritons in GaAS/AlGaAS heterojunction with left handed materials waveguide structure in quantizing magnetic field

Abstract

A theoretical investigation of nonradioactive surface polaritons in GaAs/Al x Ga 1-x metamaterials (left-handed material-LHM) waveguide is presented. The real heterojunction with LHM under both conditions is favoring integer-quantum Hall effect (IQHE) and a presence of dissipation in a two-dimensional electron layer. It is found that under IQHE conditions all aspects of surface polaritons are quantized. It has also shown that the dissipation curves have been inverted by the newly artificial LHM.
