Abstract
Abstract In this paper, a mode-matching procedure is used to prove for the first time the dispersionless behavior of glide symmetry (GS) in corrugated metasurface waveguides. Depending on their field symmetry, the Floquet harmonics have a different impact onto the frequency dispersion, which is reduced with GS when the gap between the surfaces is small. Indeed, the glide-symmetric waveguide is shown to have the same effective propagation features as a scaled mirror-symmetric waveguide with half the period and a doubled gap. We propose closed-form formulas for the effective refractive index of the glide-symmetric waveguide in the first Brillouin zone, having a small groove compared to the period. The closed-form expressions analytically prove the dispersionless behavior of GS.
