Abstract

The vertical components of the vector potential of an electromagnetic wave for a two-layer strongly inductive impedance medium are determined. The solution is presented as the Sommerfeld integral. The singular points of this integral were determined using the effective parameters. The question of the phase speed of a surface electromagnetic wave is considered. It is shown that it is always less than the light speed in a vacuum. This means that surface electromagnetic waves are not Zenneck waves, whose phase speed is greater than the light speed, like electromagnetic waves in waveguides.
