Electromagnetic Waves Propagating along the Strip Transmission Line in Magnetic Fields. II. Asymmetric Line with a Wall of PbTe-Type Material

Normal modes are investigated for the electromagnetic wave propagating along an asymmetric strip transmission line made of a perfect conductor wall and a PbTe-type magnetoplasma wall. Dispersion relations are given for three configurations of the static external magnetic field B 0 : (i) parallel to the wave vector along the line, (ii) perpendicular to the wall surface and (iii) parallel to the surface and perpendicular to the wave vector. Numerical calculations are done for the case (ii) with B 0 //[001] and (iii) with B 0 //[1\bar10]. Results are shown in the ω c - q y plot for fixed ω as well as ω- q y plot for fixed ω c . The connection with recent experiments on the power transmission in the strip line made of n –PbTe is discussed briefly.
