We show that the surface plasmon polariton (SPP) radiation patterns of point-dipole emitters in the vicinity of a metal-dielectric interface are generally asymmetric with respect to the location of the emitter. In particular rotating…
We predict the existence of surface plasmons polaritons at the interface between a metal and a periodically modulated dielectric medium, and find an unusual multi-branched dispersion curve of surface and bulk modes. The branches are…
Recent works dealt with the optical transmission on arrays of subwavelength holes perforated in a thick metallic film. We have performed simulations which quantitatively agree with experimental results and which unambiguously evidence that…
Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are surface-bound waves at metal-dielectric interfaces that exhibit strong out-of-plane field confinement, a key feature for applications is nano-scale sensing and imaging. However, this advantage is offset…
In recent years, there has been intensive investigation of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) in the science and engineering fields. Understanding the physics of surface plasmon excitation is essential to the manipulation of SPPs, and most…
Multiple compound surface plasmon-polariton (SPP) waves can be guided by a structure consisting of a sufficiently thick layer of metal sandwiched between a homogeneous isotropic dielectric (HID) material and a dielectric structurally chiral…
Recently, guiding electromagnetic surface waves without sacrificing scattering losses through paths that have arbitrary shape bumps has gained a lot of interest due to its wealth of advantages in modern photonics and plasmonics devices. In…
Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are central to application areas such as sensing, energy harvesting, and nanoscale optics, and are typically excited via spatial structuring -- an approach lacking dynamic control. We demonstrate that…
Surface-plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are electromagnetic waves that propagate along metal-dielectric interfaces, with important applications in sensing, energy, and nanotechnology. While the behavior of SPPs in single metal slabs is well…
We use coupled-mode theory to describe the scattering of a surface-plasmon polariton (SPP) from a square wave grating (Bragg grating) of finite extension written on the surface of either a metal-dielectric interface or a…
We show how a complex Snell's law can be used to describe the refraction of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) at an interface between two metals, validating its predictions with 3-D electrodynamics simulations. Refraction gives rise to…
Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are coherent electromagnetic surface waves trapped on an insulator-conductor interface. The SPPs decay exponentially along the propagation due to conductor losses, restricting the SPPs propagation length to…
Resonant optical antennas supporting plasmon polaritons (SPPs) - collective excitations of electrons coupled to electromagnetic fields in a medium - are relevant to sensing, photovoltaics, and light-emitting devices, among others. Due to…
We propose a scheme to obtain a low-loss propagation of Airy surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) along the interface between a dielectric and a negative-index metamaterial (NIMM). We show that, by using the transverse-magnetic mode and the…
We illustrate that the surface plasmon polariton (SPP) excitation through the prism coupling method is fundamentally limited by destructive interference of spatial light components. We propose that the destructive interference can be…
Nonreciprocity and one-way propagation of optical signals is crucial for modern nanophotonic technology, and is typically achieved using magneto-optical effects requiring large magnetic biases. Here we suggest a fundamentally novel approach…
Multiple p- and s-polarized compound surface plasmon-polariton (SPP) waves at a fixed frequency can be guided by a structure consisting of a metal layer sandwiched between a homogeneous isotropic dielectric (HID) material and a periodic…
Here, the dispersion of edge surface plasmon polariton (SPP) modes is expressed in terms of the elements of the conductivity tensor.
The planar interface of a metal and a hyperbolic, dielectric, structurally chiral material can support the propagation of none, one, or multiple surface-plasmon-polariton (SPP) waves, at a specified frequency and along a specified direction…
Surface plasmon polariton (SPP) as a bounded mode on a metal/dielectric interface intrinsically has a definite transverse magnetic (TM) polarization that usually lacks further manipulations. However, the in-plane longitudinal components of…
