Analysis of v-groove surface plasmon polarition waveguide
نویسندگان
چکیده
We proposed the dielectric filling in a vgroove on GaAs wafer. In order to fabricate easily, the channel plasmon polaritons waveguide is proposed and analyzed, compared to conventional optical waveguide based on multi-epitaxial layer. The propagation loss is analyzed using 3-dimensional finite-difference time-domain method. We obtained the propagation loss of 1.02 dB / 30 μm.

Detuned Plasmonic Bragg Grating Sensor Based on a Defect Metal-Insulator-Metal Waveguide
A nanoscale Bragg grating reflector based on the defect metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguide is developed and numerically simulated by using the finite element method (FEM). The MIM-based structure promises a highly tunable broad stop-band in transmission spectra. The narrow transmission window is shown to appear in the previous stop-band by changing the certain geometrical parameters. The cen...

recently a new structure called groove gap waveguide (GGW) is introduced to implement low loss microwave component devices especially for millimeter wave applications. This paper presents a new type of H-plane horn antenna making use of this new technology in which backward radiation is significantly suppressed by introducing a high impedance surface at the antenna aperture. The high impe...
متن کاملAmplification of long-range surface plasmons by a dipolar gain medium
Surface plasmon–polaritions, collective electron oscillations coupled to light waves at the surface of a metal, show unique properties that are valuable in a broad range of scientific fields. However, the intrinsic propagation loss of these waves poses a fundamental problem to many potential applications. To overcome this drawback, researchers have explored the possibility of loss compensation ...

In this letter, we demonstrate the possibility of an effective nano-scale FabryPerot interferometer in a sub-wavelength plasmonic waveguide in the form of a triangular groove on a metal surface, guiding channel plasmon-polaritons (CPPs). The resonant cavity is formed by two semitransparent metal membranes (mirrors) placed into the groove. Effective filtering effect of the cavity is demonstrated...
متن کاملDesigner reflectors using spoof surface plasmons in the terahertz range
We show that spoof surface plasmons can be used to control the reflection of terahertz radiation at the output facet of a parallel-plate waveguide. Using a periodic groove pattern on the output face, reflectivity approaching 100% can be achieved within a limited spectral range. Unlike the conventional geometry for plasmon-enhanced transmission, this approach enables a unique method for studying...
