A More Realistic Coupled Dipole Approximation Model for Plasmonic Waveguides
نویسنده
چکیده
Well-known coupled dipole approximation method is extended to multilayered media to obtain a more realistic model for plasmonic waveguides. The key component of the developed method is the layered medium Green's functions. Theoretically calculated resonance frequencies show a very good agreement with the experimental results found in the literature. Keywords-plasmonic waveguides; dispersion; propagation length; layered medium.

We have proposed a new ultra-compact optical demultiplexer based on metal-insulator-metal plasmonic waveguides aperture-coupled to the ring resonators. Our proposed device has high performance, small footprint, and high potential for integration and development to more channels.
متن کاملCompact dipole nanoantenna coupler to plasmonic slot waveguide.
Optical nanoantennas can be used for coupling radiation to or from waveguides in analogy to micro- and radio-wave systems. In this letter we provide a systematic description of the design approaches for a coupler to a plasmonic slot waveguide in the telecom range around 1.55 µm with realistic excitation from a lensed optical fiber. We show that the best coupling efficiency of 26% can be achieve...
متن کاملCoupling strength of complex plasmonic structures in the multiple dipole approximation.
We present a simple model to calculate the spatial dependence of the interaction strength between two plasmonic objects. Our approach is based on a multiple dipole approximation and utilizes the current distributions at the resonances in single objects. To obtain the interaction strength, we compute the potential energy of discrete weighted dipoles associated with the current distributions of t...

In this work, the extinction spectra of the nano-structure of the Tilt Helical and Stair-like Towers of Mn thin films were obtained using discrete dipole approximation (DDA) simulation for both s-and p-polarization at two incident light angles of 10°, and 60° at different azimuthal angles for the there samples with different tilt. Obtained results are compared with the experimental optical exti...
