Mimicking surface plasmons with structured surfaces.
Metals such as silver support surface plasmons: electromagnetic surface excitations localized near the surface that originate from the free electrons of the metal. Surface modes are also observed on highly conducting surfaces perforated by holes. We establish a close connection between the two, showing that electromagnetic waves in both materials are governed by an effective permittivity of the...
متن کاملGrating-coupled surface plasmons at microwave frequencies
This work presents a detailed investigation of electromagnetic coupling to the surface plasmon-polariton ~SPP! at microwave frequencies. We have recorded the wavelength-dependent reflectivity from a metallic sinusoidal diffraction grating of pitch 15 mm. In order to minimize the problems associated with nonplanar incident wavefronts, we have developed an apparatus that collimates the incident b...
متن کاملMagnetostatic surface waves propagation at dissipative ferrite-MTMs-metal structure
The magnetostatic surface waves (MSSW) propagation in a layered structure composed of ferrite film covered by air and on top of metamaterial (MTM) placed on metal is discussed. Dispersion equations which relate the parameters of different layers are derived and used to analyse propagation of MSSW. It is found that the MSSW excitation band depends on the thickness of the MTM layer and ferrite la...
متن کاملCoupling light into graphene plasmons through surface acoustic waves.
We propose a scheme for coupling laser light into graphene plasmons with the help of electrically generated surface acoustic waves. The surface acoustic wave forms a diffraction grating which allows us to excite the long lived phononlike branch of the hybridized graphene plasmon-phonon dispersion with infrared laser light. Our approach avoids patterning the graphene sheet, does not rely on comp...
متن کاملTheory of surface phonons at metal surfaces: recent advances.
Recent studies of the surface dynamics of Al(001) and Cu(111) based on density functional perturbation theory have substantiated the existence of subsurface optical phonon resonances of all three polarizations, thus confirming early predictions of the embedded-atom method. The hybridization of the shear-vertical optical resonance with the longitudinal acoustic phonon branch accounts for the ubi...
