Scattering of a surface plasmon polariton by a localized dielectric surface defect.
On the basis of a rigorous, nonperturbative, purely numerical solution of the corresponding reduced Rayleigh equation for the scattering amplitudes we have studied the scattering of a surface plasmon polariton by a two dimensional dielectric defect on a planar metal surface. The profile of the defect is assumed to be an arbitrary single-valued function of the coordinates in the plane of the met...
متن کاملSurface plasmon polariton scattering by finite-size nanoparticles
The electromagnetic Green’s tensor approach GTA is used to obtain the differential and total scattering cross sections of a finite-size nanoparticle located at a metal surface and illuminated with surface plasmon polaritons SPPs . The scattering process comprehends either elastic scattering of the incident SPP into other SPPs propagating in different directions or scattering into field componen...
متن کاملDirect observation of surface plasmon-polariton dispersion.
We describe a method to observe the directional emission of electromagnetic radiation produced by the radiative decay of surface plasmonpolaritons (SPPs) that allows the dispersion of the modes in k-space to be directly visualized. The method presented here opens up the possibility of characterizing the effect of a wide range of surface morphologies on SPP dispersion. As an example we show the ...
متن کاملEffect of defect depth on surface plasmon scattering by subwavelength surface defects
Surface plasmon scattering by bidimensional indentations and protrusions is examined, mainly in the optical regime. The width of the defects is fixed, while their height is varied. Both individual defects and arrays of defects are considered. Protrusions mainly reflect the incident plasmons in the optical range. Indentations mainly radiate the incident plasmon out of plane. An indentation produ...
متن کاملRemoval of surface plasmon polariton eigenmodes degeneracy
The effect of the tilt angle of metal film on the transmissivity of subwavelength holes in optically thick metal film is investigated. The transmission efficiency is found can be highly dependent on the tilt angle. It is also found that when the input photons are polarized not along the eigenmode directions of surface plasmon polariton, a birefringent phenomenon is observed when the array with ...
