First-order perturbation theory of eigenmodes for systems with interfaces

We present an exact first-order perturbation theory for eigenmodes in systems with interfaces causing material discontinuities. We show that when interfaces deform, higher-order terms of the perturbation series can contribute to the eigenmode frequencies in first order in the deformation depth. In s...
