Abstract :
The surface-wave modes in a dielectric slab covered by a periodically slotted conducting plane are investigated. Two methods-sampling and variational-are used to obtain the surface-wave modes. The dispersion curves obtained by the two methods agree very well. The experimental and the theoretical results are in good agreement, except close to the stopband.
