We demonstrate that surface plasmon polaritons can be guided by nanometer scale dielectric waveguides. In a test experiment plasmons were coupled to a curved 3 micrometer radius dielectric stripe, which was 200 nm wide and 138 nm thick…

The lifetime of localized surface plasmon plays an important role in many aspects of plasmonics and its applications. In small metal nanostructures, the dominant mechanism restricting plasmon lifetime is size-dependent Landau damping. We…

The generation of surface plasmon polaritons (SPP's) at isolated nanoholes in 100 nm thick Au films is studied using near-field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM). Finite-difference time-domain calculations, some explicitly including a…

In the present research, we demonstrate the usage of plasmonic effects in thin film structures to control magnetic topological textures, specifically skyrmions and skyrmioniums. We investigate numerically the generation and alteration of…

The random-phase-approximation semiclassical scheme for description of plasmon excitations in large metallic nanospheres (with radius 10--100 nm) is developed for a case of presence of dynamical electric field. The spectrum of plasmons in…

This paper explores the time-domain equations of noble metals, in which Drude model is adopted to describe the dielectric constant, to implement three-dimensional particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations for the surface plasmon excitation with…

Plasmon-polariton behavior on the surfaces of constant negative curvature is considered. Analytical solutions for the eigenfrequencies and eigenfunctions are found, which describe resonant behavior of metal nanotips and nanoholes. These…

We derive a simple rule to determine surface plasmon energies, based on the geometrical properties of the surface of the metal. We apply this concept to obtain the surface plasmon energies in wedges, corners and conical tips. The results…

Surface plasmons are usually described as surface waves with either a complex wavevector or a complex frequency. When discussing their merits in terms of field confinment or enhancement of the local density of states, controversies…

We review studies of superintense laser interaction with solid targets where the generation of propagating surface plasmons (or surface waves) plays a key role. These studies include the onset of plasma instabilities at the irradiated…

We have theoretically studied how the azimuthal phase structure of an electron vortex beam excites surface plasmons on metal particles of different geometries as observed in electron energy loss spectroscopy. To do so, we have developed a…

Recent experiments have shown that spatial dispersion may have a conspicuous impact on the response of plasmonic structures. This suggests that in some cases the Drude model should be replaced by more advanced descriptions that take spatial…

Surface plasmon polaritons (SSP), moving along a smooth curved interface between two isotropic media with slowly varying dielectric permittivities and magnetic permeabilities and supporting SSP, are studied theoretically. Solutions of…

The electronic environment causes decoherence and dissipation of the collective surface plasmon excitation in metallic nanoparticles. We show that the coupling to the electronic environment influences the width and the position of the…

Multipolar plasmon oscillation frequencies and corresponding damping rates for nanospheres formed of the simplest free-electron metals are studied. The possibility of controlling plasmon features by choosing the size and dielectric…

Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) can be understood as two-dimensional light confined to a conductor-dielectric interface via plasmonic excitations. While low-energy SPPs behave similarly to photons, higher-frequency SPPs resemble surface…

We report theoretical evidence that bulk nonlinear materials weakly interacting with highly localized plasmonic modes in ultra-sub-wavelength metallic nanostructures can lead to nonlinear effects at the single plasmon level in the visible…

Unique properties of plasmons in two-dimensional electron systems (2DESs) have been studied for many years. Existing theoretical approaches allow for analytical study of the properties of ungated and gated plasmons in two fundamental, ideal…

We characterize surface-plasmon polaritons at lossy planar interfaces between one dispersive and one nondispersive linear isotropic homogeneous media, i.e., materials or metamaterials. Specifically we solve Maxwell's equations to obtain…

The collective plasmonic modes of a metal comprise a pattern of charge density and tightly-bound electric fields that oscillate in lock-step to yield enhanced light-matter interaction. Here we show that metals with non-zero Hall…
