Dispersion of THz Modes Localized on Layered Superconductor Controlled by DC Magnetic Field

Being materials that support terahertz waves propagation, layered superconductors attract great attention of many researchers. The Josephson plasma modes localized on a slab of layered superconductor can possess an anomalous dispersion. The possibility of the anomalous dispersion manipulation opens wide perspectives for applications. One of the tools that can flexibly change the electromagnetic properties of layered superconductors is the external DC magnetic field. The effect of the DC magnetic field on the spectrum of the localized modes is a subject of the present paper. We present the derivation and analysis of the dispersion relations and discuss some interesting corollaries such as resonant amplification of wave transmission induced by the internal excitation of the localized modes and the possibility of the internal reflection of the localized modes controlled bv the external DC magnetic field.
