Abstract :
In this paper we investigate the nonlinear behavior of magnetic TM surface waves on the interface between an antiferromagnet and a ferromagnet. We found in this new guiding structure that the rich frequency characteristics take place in the microwave frequency regime. It is also revealed for the first that the nonlinear TM surface waves excited on the interface can be backward surface waves, that is, the waves with the group velocity and phase velocity opposite, in the case of ε1<ε2
