We report here experiments on surface plasmon excitation and propagation along corrugated and smooth aluminum surface in the terahertz frequency range. Narrowband plasmon excitation by a subpicosecond terahertz pulse is shown to be a transient process and plasmon propagation sufficiently changes its measured time profile. Plasmon propagation during its excitation and detection changes measured signal. We suggest to use parameters T (plasmon duration) and τ (plasmon lifetime) to describe the narrowband THz plasmon pulse. Plasmon duration and lifetime were defined and plasmon propagation lengths on smooth and corrugated surface were measured. Plasmon propagation length on flat surface turned out to be much smaller than it is predicted by the Drude model. 相似文献

We report a study of a two-layer dielectric-loaded surface plasmon polariton waveguide (TDLSPPW) which consisted of two dielectric layers (high-index/low-index) on a silver film. The discontinuity of the electric field at the interfaces resulted in a concentrated field in the low-index region. It efficiently reduced the propagation loss of the surface plasmon polariton mode. The mode fields and corresponding complex propagation constants were calculated by a vector finite-difference method. The propagation properties were measured by a modified near-field optical microscope. It is confirmed that the propagation length of the proposed TDLSPPW was about 1.6 times longer than conventional single-layer SPP waveguides. In addition, a 90° waveguide turn with 3 μm radius showed that the bending loss was smaller than 2 dB. 相似文献

As the combination of surface plasmon polariton and femtosecond laser pulse,femtosecond surface plasmon polariton has both nanoscale spatial resolution and femtosecond temporal resolution,and thus provides promising methods for light field manipulation and light-matter interaction in extreme small spatiotemporal scales.Nowadays,the research on femtosecond surface plasmon polariton is mainly concentrated on two aspects:one is investigation and characterization of excitation,propagation,and dispersion properties of femtosecond surface plasmon polariton in different structures or materials;the other one is developing new applications based on its unique properties in the fields of nonlinear enhancement,pulse shaping,spatiotemporal super-resolved imaging,and others.Here,we introduce the research progress of properties and applications of femtosecond surface plasmon polariton,and prospect its future research trends.With the further development of femtosecond surface plasmon polariton research,it will have a profound impact on nano-optoelectronics,molecular dynamics,biomedicine and other fields. 相似文献

The strong electromagnetic coupling between surface plasmon polariton modes on opposite interfaces of a finite thickness periodically nanostructured metal film has been studied. Surface polariton dispersion and associated electromagnetic field distributions have been analyzed. It was shown that at a frequency that corresponds to the crossing of film Bloch modes of different symmetries, the radiative losses of surface polaritons that are related to the polaritons' coupling to light during propagation on the structured surface are suppressed. 相似文献

Because of their long propagation length at a metal surface in the far infrared, surface plasmons make potentially feasible the design and realization of 2D integrated terahertz systems over a metallic substrate. The coupling of a terahertz beam to the surface plasmon wave is very efficiently achieved by diffraction gratings engraved at the metal surface. In this article, we present a review of some recent works we performed in view of characterizing this coupling phenomenon. The analysis of the experimental data supplied by terahertz time-domain spectroscopy allows us to point out the main parameters that govern this diffraction process and the propagation of a surface plasmon over a flat or corrugated metal surface.

It is shown that the inverse Faraday effect appears in the case of surface plasmon polariton propagation near a metal/paramagnetic
interface. The inverse Faraday effect in nanostructured periodically perforated metal-dielectric films increases because of
the excitation of surface plasmon polaritons. In this case, a stationary magnetic field is amplified by more than an order
of magnitude compared to the case of a smooth paramagnetic film. The distribution of an electromagnetic field is sensitive
to the wavelength and the angle of incidence, which allows one to effectively control the local magnetization that arises
due to the inverse Faraday effect. 相似文献

The enhancement of light transmittance through periodically relief thin absorptive film at surface plasmon polariton excitation conditions, as a function of relief interrelation, was considered theoretically. Our calculation of transmittance-reflectance through periodically relief thin absorptive film was performed in the framework of differential formalism. There are two basic relief interrelation forms, namely, correlated and anticorrelated ones. The obtained spectral and angular dependencies demonstrate an essential increase of surface plasmon polariton peaks in the case of anticorrelated corrugation of film in comparison with the correlated ones. 相似文献

Abstract By the use of the reduced Rayleigh equation for the amplitude of a surface plasmon polariton on a one-dimensional randomly rough metal surface that is in contact with vacuum, we calculate the dispersion and damping of the surface electromagnetic wave to the lowest nonzero order in the rms height of the surface. It is found that the frequency of the surface plasmon polariton is depressed by the surface roughness. The attenuation of the surface plasmon polariton in the long wavelength limit is due primarily to its scattering into other surface plasmon polaritons, while in the short wavelength limit it is due primarily to its roughness-induced scattering into volume electromagnetic waves in the vacuum. The energy mean free path of the surface plasmon polariton is shorter on a randomly rough metal surface than it is on a lossy planar metal surface, and the surface plasmon polariton is more tightly bound to a rough surface than to a planar one. 相似文献

Long-range surface plasmon polariton (LRSPP) modes in an
asymmetrical system, in which the thin metal film is sandwiched
between a semi-infinite substrate and a high permittivity polymer
film with a finite thickness, are theoretically calculated and
analyzed. Due to the high permittivity of the polymer film, at
proper polymer film thicknesses, the index-matching condition of the
dielectrics at both sides of the metal can be satisfied for
supporting LRSPP modes, and the electromagnetic field above the
metal can be localized well. It is found that these LRSPP modes have
both long propagation lengths and subwavelength mode expansion above
the metal at the optimal polymer film thicknesses. Furthermore, the
requirements on the refractive index and the thickness of the
polymer film to support LRSPP modes at the optimal thicknesses are
found to be not critical. 相似文献

The effect of the tilt angle of a metal film on the transmissivity of subwavelength holes in optically thick metal film is
investigated. We found that the transmission efficiency can be highly dependent on the tilt angle. It is also found that when
the input photons are not polarized along the eigenmode directions of surface plasmon polariton, a birefringent phenomenon
is observed when a periodic array of subwavelength holes is tilted. Linear polarization states can be changed to elliptical
polarization states, and a phase can be added between two eigenmodes. The phase is changed with the tilt angle. A model based
on surface plasmon polariton eigenmodes degeneracy is presented to explain these experimental results.

We investigate the switching between two surface plasmon polariton modes in a non-Hermitian system composed of a pair of graphene sheets using topological operations. The topological operation is implemented by suitably designing the waveguide geometry and the chemical potential of graphene, which is equivalent to changing the system parameters along a closed loop in the parameter space. Efficient and robust mode switching takes place as the loop encloses an exceptional point and the wave experiences a sufficiently large propagation length. Moreover, we show this mode switching is chiral, in the sense that the output modes are different for choosing different loop directions. The study provides a promising approach to robust mode switching on a deep-subwavelength scale. 相似文献

Its is found that the spectrum of the light emitted by statistically rough tunnel junctions in the range 400–700 nm correlates with the calculated damping of the fast surface plasmon polariton mode of the tunnel junction structure. It is deduced that the radiative decay of this mode is responsible for the bulk of the light emission. It is shown that the view of existing theory that emission from statistically rough junctions is mediated by the slow surface plasmon polariton mode is untenable. Our deductions firmly consolidate a suggestion due to Kroo, Szentirmay and Felszerfalvi. 相似文献

We study the coupling of localized surface plasmon and surface plasmon polariton modes in a system composed of a metallic nanoparticle chain imbedded in a dielectric–metal–dielectric substrate. The results show the influence of outside parts and imbedded parts of particles on the interaction between localized surface plasmon and surface plasmon polariton modes. An enhancement can be observed in our structure. This kind of the structure has a very promising candidate for biosensing and surface enhanced spectroscopy applications. 相似文献

The use of surface plasmon polariton (SPP)-based waveguides can significantly reduce the size of optical interconnects, but the propagation length of SPPs is limited by Joule heating losses and does not exceed a few micrometers. In this paper, we present an SPP amplification scheme that utilizes compact electrical pumping and gives a possibility for designing really compact on-chip waveguides. Moreover, we demonstrate here numerically that this approach can be easily used to design an electrically pumped cw or pulsed spaser. 相似文献

We present experimental results on ultralong-range surface plasmon polaritons, propagating in a thin metal film on a one-dimensional (1D) photonic crystal surface over a distance of several millimeters. This propagation length is about 2 orders of magnitude higher than the one in the ordinary Kretschmann configuration at the same optical frequency. We show that a long-range surface plasmon polaritons propagation may take place not only in a (quasi)symmetrical scheme, where a thin metal film is located between two media with (approximately) the same refraction index, but also in a scheme where the thin metal film is located between an appropriate 1D photonic crystal and an arbitrary (air, water, etc.) medium. The ultralong-range surface plasmon polaritons are potentially important for biosensors, plasmonics, and other applications. 相似文献

Plasmon beams interaction at interface between metal and dielectric with saturable Kerr nonlinearity

We present a novel theory of surface plasmon polariton interaction on the surface of dielectric with saturable Kerr nonlinearity. The effect of the total internal reflection of a weak signal plasmon beam from a high-power reference beam is discussed. Both ray and wave theories are used to describe signal propagation. The effect of the signal tunneling through the narrow inhomogeneity induced by the reference beam is considered. 相似文献

The spatial two-point coherence function of the thermal radiation field at subwave-distance from a metallic film is calculated
within fluctuation electrodynamics. Long-range oscillations as a function of lateral separation are seen; we interpret their
features by comparing to the dispersion relations of surface plasmon polariton modes on the thin film. The hybridization of
the surface modes on the top and bottom interfaces leads to a beatnote in the field correlations, for specific detector setups. 相似文献
