A realistic description of plasmas, metals, semiconductors and insulators often requires spatially dispersive (non-local) models. This means that the dielectric function which characterizes the material medium depends on the wave-vector, as well as on the frequency. Surprisingly, there is no book which is entirely devoted to this important subject. The chapters presented in this book discuss electromagnetic (polariton) wave propagation in the bulk, at surfaces, in thin films and superlattices, in spheres and on cylinders. The emphasis is on advances in research in the last decade. Spatial Dispersion in Solids and Plasmas will be of multidisciplinary interest covering plasma physics, solid-state physics, optics, surface physics, and electrical engineering.

Preface. Basic concepts and formalism of spatial dispersion (R. Fuchs and P. Halevi). 1. Microscopic approach to the dielectric response of metallic surfaces (R.R. Gerhardts). 2. Spatial dispersion and surface electromagnetic absorption in metals (E.A. Kaner, A.A. Krokhin and N.M. Makarov). 3. Experimental aspects of spatial dispersion in thin films and small particles (T. Lopez-Rios). 4. Bulk and surface plasma waves in semiconducting superlattices (J.J. Quinn, G. Eliasson and P. Hawrylak). 5. Theory of spatial dispersion in small particles (R. Fuchs). 6. Exciton polaritons and optical properties of direct gap semiconductors (P. Halevi). 7. Effect of a DC current on electromagnetic surface waves (R.F. Wallis and B.G. Martin). 8. Low-frequency magnetoplasma waves in metals (V.T. Petrashov). 9. Magnetohydrodynamic surface waves (N.F. Cramer and I.J. Donnelly). 10. Nonlinear surface modes (A. Shivarova). 11. Non-local effects in laser plasmas (M.G. Haines). Author index. Subject index.
