Kn. Ostrikov et Av. Smolin, HEATING MECHANISM OF SELF-INTERACTION OF SURFACE-POLARITONS AT N-TYPESEMICONDUCTOR-METAL INTERFACE, Physics letters. A, 177(4-5), 1993, pp. 327-330
The influence of electron heating in the high-frequency surface polari
ton (SP) field on the dispersion properties of the SPs considered is i
nvestigated. High frequency SPs propagate at the interface between an
n-type semiconductor with finite electron pressure, and a metal. The n
onlinear dispersion relation for the SPs is derived and investigated.
