Title: Channel plasmon polaritons guided by graded gaps: closed-form solutions. Author: Bozhevolnyi SI, Nerkararyan KV. Journal: Opt Express; 2009 Jun 08; 17(12):10327-34. PubMed ID: 19506686. Abstract: Using the effective-index approximation along with the explicit expression for the propagation constant of gap surface plasmons established recently [Opt. Express 16, 2676-2684 (2008)], we develop an analytic description of channel plasmon polariton (CPP) modes guided along V-grooves and gaps between two metal cylindrical surfaces. The results obtained for V-grooves are compared with those reported previously. Dispersion of the main CPP characteristics is calculated for air-gold configurations, allowing one to design graded-gap waveguides for the single-mode operation supporting well-confined fundamental CPP modes in a broad wavelength range.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
