Abstract:

Propagation properties of TE mode for the symmetric waveguide made of left-handed material surrounded by metal substrate- and coat- layers are studied. The guidance conditions of TE mode is deduced by transmission matrix. Using graphical method, different propagation modes and corresponding transverse profiles of electric field are analyzed. It is found that the fundamental mode TE0 does not exists, such waveguide can support surface wave modes. There is a significant effect on transverse profile of order m and so on. This result will play a theoretical guidance for the research of waveguide containing left-handed materials.
