    Abstract:
    A metallic nano-slit surrounded with asymmetric grooves is proposed as the plasmonic concentrator for oblique incident light. A theoretical model based on the surface plasmon polariton (SPP) coupled-mode method is derived for the extraordinary optical transmission (EOT) through such a structure under oblique incidence. The model is quantitatively validated with the finite element method. With the model, the physical insight of the EOT is then interpreted, i.e., the major contributions to the transmission include the vertical Fabry-Perot resonance of the slit, and the interference among slit modes excited by the incident light, by SPPs generated from groove arrays and their first-order reflections. This is quite different from the EOT through a nano-slit surrounded with symmetric grooves under normal incidence.
