Title: Integrated fiber-coupled launcher for slow plasmon-polariton waves. Author: Della Valle G, Longhi S. Journal: Opt Express; 2012 Jan 30; 20(3):3158-65. PubMed ID: 22330553. Abstract: We propose and numerically demonstrate an integrated fiber-coupled launcher for slow surface plasmon-polaritons. The device is based on a novel plasmonic mode-converter providing efficient power transfer from the fast to the slow modes of a metallic nanostripe. Total coupling efficiency with standard single-mode fiber approaching 30% (including ohmic losses) has been numerically predicted for a 25-µm long gold-based device operating at 1.55 µm telecom wavelength.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
