  • Title: Investigating the characteristics of TM-pass/TE-stop polarizer designed using plasmonic nanostructures.
    Author: Mahros AM, Tharwat MM, Ashry I.
    Journal: Appl Opt; 2015 May 10; 54(14):4464-70. PubMed ID: 25967503.
    Abstract:
    Plasmonics-based polarizers are important for many photonic devices and applications. In this paper, we design and investigate the characteristics of a new TM-pass/TE-stop polarizer using silver nanograting of exponentially tapered slit sidewalls. Performance of the designed polarizer is determined through monitoring the modification of its insertion loss, return loss, extinction ratio, and far-field transform due to changing its structural parameters. We find that the structural parameters of the reported polarizer such as a slit sidewall tapering coefficient and slit opening widths have a significant impact on tuning the polarizer characteristics.
