“…In our previous articles [9,10], we have studied the cases of surface electron cyclotron waves with extraordinary and ordinary polarization, correspondingly, and also their propagation under conditions, when an external magnetic field was assumed to be oriented parallel to a plasma-dielectric interface. Unlike these cases, here we study the case of perpendicular orientation of an external steady magnetic field and do not restrict our consideration by the wavelength range located near a limit of long wavelengths compared with Larmor radius of electron, as it has been done in [9,10]. To derive a set of equations describing parametric excitation of surface electron cyclotron TM-modes (SECTMmodes) the non-linear boundary condition, which determines discontinuity of tangential magnetic field of studied modes, is formulated as done in papers [9,10].…”
