- Аннотация: Since the initial discovery of Dyakonov surface waves at a flat infinite interface of two dielectrics, at least one of which is positively anisotropic, extensive research has been conducted towards their theoretical and experimental studies in materials with positive anisotropy. The potential applications of these waves were initially limited due to the stringent conditions for their existence and the requirement for position anisotropy. In our study, we present the theoretical prediction and experimental observation of a novel type of Dyakonov surface waves that propagate along the flat strip of the interface between two dielectrics with negative anisotropy. We demonstrate that the conditions for surface waves are satisfied for negatively anisotropic dielectrics owing to the specific boundaries of the strip waveguide confined between two metallic plates. We study such modes theoretically by using the perturbation theory in the approximation of weak anisotropy and demonstrate that the electromagnetic field distribution in these modes is chiral. Experimental verification of theoretical predictions is made in the microwave range using 3D-printed negatively anisotropic water-dielectric metamaterial slabs. The existence of Dyakonov surface waves in negative crystals prompts a reassessment of the list of materials suitable for practical realization of these waves in the visible and infrared ranges. Due to the ability of the considered modes to transmit chiral light, they have potential in the sensing of chiral organic molecules.
