We study theoretically TM-polarized electromagnetic waves at a plane interface between two nonabsorbing, optically defocusing, nonlinear Kerr-type media. Numerical results are obtained for the dispersion equation and propagation constants of the field modes. The power guided by TM waves on interface was calculated and illustrated as a function of electric field value on interface.
