Effect of heating nonlinearity on propagation of high-frequency surface waves at the semiconductor-metal interface
Abstract
An approximation of weak heating influence of electron heating in the high-frequency surface wave field on propagation of surface wave (heating nonlinearity) is considered. It is shown that a high-frequency surface wave propagates in the direction perpendicular to the external magnetic field at the semiconductor-metal interface. A nonlinear dispersion equation is obtained and studied that allows one to make conclusions about the contribution of heating nonlinearity to a nonlinear process of considered interaction.
