Design and Simulation of a Metal-Insulator-Metal Filter Based on Plasmonic Split Ring
In this paper, a plasmonic filter made of a split ring, two U-shaped structures and two straight waveguides is designed and investigated. In the proposed structure, the split ring and U-shaped structures are situated between straight waveguides. Simulations are done based on FDTD method. Split ring, U-shaped structures and straight waveguides are made of air in the silver background. In the pro...
متن کاملEfficient Analysis of Plasmonic circuits using Differential Global Surface Impedance (DGSI) Model
Differential global surface impedance (DGSI) model, a rigorous approach, has been applied to the analysis of three dimensional plasmonic circuits. This model gives a global relation between the tangential electric field and the equivalent surface electric current on the boundary of an object. This approach helps one bring the unknowns to the boundary surface of an object and so avoid volumetric...
متن کاملPlasmonic Adder/Subtractor Module Based on a Ring Resonator Filter
A four port network adder-subtractor module, for surface plasmon polariton (SPP) waves based on a ring resonator filter is proposed. The functionality of module is achieved by the phase difference manipulation of guided SPPs through different arms connected to the ring resonator. The module is designed using the concepts of a basic two-port device proposed in this paper. It is shown that two po...
متن کاملHarmonics Generation by Surface Plasmon Polaritons on Single Nanowires
We present experimental observations of visible wavelength second- and third-harmonic generation on single plasmonic nanowires of variable widths. We identify that near-infrared surface plasmon polaritons, which are guided along the nanowire, act as the source of the harmonics generation. We discuss the underlying mechanism of this nonlinear process, using a combination of spatially resolved me...
