چکیده

We theoretically study channel plasmon-polaritons (CPPs) with a geometry similar to that in recent experiments at telecom wavelengths (Bozhevolnyi et al., Nature 440, 508 (2006)). The CPP modal shape, dispersion relation, and losses are simulated using the multiple multipole method and the finite difference time domain technique. It is shown that, with the increase of the wavelength, the fundamental CPP mode shifts progressively towards the groove opening, ceasing to be guided at the groove bottom and becoming hybridized with wedge plasmon-polaritons running along the groove edges. c © 2008 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: 240.6680, 130.2790, 260.3910.

Channel plasmon-polaritons: modal shape, dispersion, and losses.

We theoretically study channel plasmon-polaritons (CPPs) with a geometry similar to that in recent experiments at telecommunication wavelengths [Bozhevolnyi et al., Nature 440, 508 (2006)]. The CPP modal shape, dispersion relation, and losses are simulated by using the multiple multipole method and the finite difference time domain technique. It is shown that, with an increase of the wavelength...

Theory of Nonlinear s-Polarized Phonon-Polaritons in Multilayered Structures

A theory is presented for the dispersion relations of the nonlinear phonon-polaritons arising when phonons are coupled to the electromagnetic waves in multilayered structures of nonlinear materials. The calculations are applied to a multilayered structure consisting of a thin film surrounded by semi-infinite bounding media where each layer may have a frequency dependent dielectric function and ...

Surface plasmon polaritons in sub-wavelength metallic gratings studied by higher-order angle-resolved spectroscopy

Angle-resolved reflection spectroscopy is used to study surface plasmon polariton modes of metallic gratings consisting of sub-wavelength grooves. The used optical set-up allows recording of zero and m = −1 order reflection spectra in the visible and near infra-red spectral region. The different modes and their mutual coupling was identified in the dispersion diagram by means of modal theory. S...

Exact dispersion relation for nonlinear plasmonic waveguides

We derive an exact dispersion relation for the surface plasmon polaritons of a nonlinear plasmonic waveguide using exact field decomposition of TM waves. Our approach generalizes the known linear dispersion relations to the case of a medium nonlinearity of the form εNL = εL + α|E|2n. We apply the unique dispersion relation to a plasmonic waveguide with a Kerr-type nonlinearity (n = 1) and show ...
