TLDR
In this paper, the phase of the refraction coefficient is a multi-valued function of the angle of incidence and power of the incident wave, and it is shown that the phase is a multiview function.Abstract:
We consider total internal reflection of a monochromatic plane wave from an isotropic nonlinear medium with
cubic nonlinearity. Hodograph of the electric field is found from the expression for energy density of the field.
Possible values of angle of incidence are found. Essential differences between waves in focusing and defocusing
media are pointed out and discussed. It is shown that the phase of the refraction coefficient is a multi-valued
function of the angle of incidence and power of the incident wave.read more

TL;DR: In this paper, a new treatment of the behavior of TE nonlinear waves in an optically nonlinear film is given, expressed in terms of the physical parameters of the system and represent a straightforward way to introduce the necessary Jacobian elliptic functions.

p-polarized nonlinear surface polaritons in materials with intensity-dependent dielectric functions
TL;DR: It is shown that Maxwell's equations for the NLSP can be solved exactly in quadratures for optically isotropic media with dielectric functions which can be an arbitrary function of the field intensity.

Exact field decomposition for TM waves in nonlinear media.
TL;DR: It is shown that the electric field components E(x) and E(z) of a transverse magnetic wave propagating in a nonlinear medium can be formally decomposed through a conservation law, provided that partial differentialxx/ partial differentialE(z)(2) = partial differentialzz/ partial DifferentialE(x)(2).
Analysis of TM Polarized Nonlinear Guided Waves Based on a Conservation Law

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the properties of the transverse magnetic TE-polarized guided waves in nonlinear layered structures, where the presence of two electric field components, one parallel and one orthogonal, to the boundaries of a thin film guiding structure makes the analysis of TM waves more complicated than for transverse electric TE polarized waves.
