Accumulation-layer Surface Plasmons

Optics 2017-05-15 v1

Abstract

A rigorous analytical study of the eigenmodes supported by a charge accumulation layer within a transparent conductive oxide (TCO) is presented. The new class of surface plasmons termed Accumulation-Layer Surface Plasmon (ASP) is introduced. Near resonance ASP are tightly bound and display a vast effective index tunability that could be of great practical interest. The suppression of ASP in the presence of epsilon-near zero regions is discussed.
