## Abstract Surface waves are the fields that decay exponentially away from, but propagate along, a dielectric interface. In this paper, a dielectric waveguide is constructed with a grounded DNG metamaterial slab whose real parts of permittivity and permeability are both negative. Field solutions a

Abstract
In this paper, we discuss new physical insights regarding the anomalous dispersion in the double‐negative (DNG) waveguide. Base on our analysis, the discontinuity structure of a grounded DNG slab waveguide, sandwiched between two dielectric slab waveguides, is investigated and the physical insights are also presented. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

## Abstract The scattering and radiation characteristics of a step discontinuity in a double‐negative (DNG) slab waveguide operating in the evanescent surface mode are analyzed by a method which combines the rigorous mode‐matching method with multimode network theory. In the analysis, the radiation

## Abstract A combined approach of the finite‐element and boundary‐element methods is formulated for the analysis of arbitrarily shaped discontinuities in a grounded slab waveguide. In this approach, the discontinuity region is divided into two regions. One is a finite region with arbitrary inhomog
