Surfaces with holes in them: new plasmonic metamaterials

F. J. García‐Vidal, L. Martı́n-Moreno, J. B. Pendry · 20 Jan 2005

In this paper we explore the existence of surface electromagnetic modes in corrugated surfaces of perfect conductors. We analyse two cases: one-dimensional arrays of grooves and two-dimensional arrays of holes. In both cases we find that these structures support surface bound states and that the dispersions of these modes have strong similarities with the dispersion…

Surface plasmon–polariton length scales: a route to sub-wavelength optics

William L. Barnes · 21 Mar 2006

We look at four length scales associated with the surface plasmon–polariton (SPP) modes in the visible and near-infrared. We examine some of the consequences of these length scales for exploiting surface plasmon–polariton modes as a means to provide sub-wavelength optics. The four length scales discussed are the SPP wavelength, the SPP propagation distance, and the…

Near-field photonics: surface plasmon polaritons and localized surface plasmons

Anatoly V. Zayats, Igor I. Smolyaninov · 25 Jun 2003

Surface plasmon polaritons and localized surface plasmons are discussed in the context of photonic applications. Near-field imaging of scattering, reflection, interference and localization of surface polaritons is reviewed, and approaches for the implementation of elements of surface polariton optics are presented. Surface plasmon polaritonic crystals and their role in the determination of optical properties of…

Optical currents

Michael Berry · 4 Aug 2009

For scalar light, the current is the familiar expectation value of the intensity-weighted momentum operator. Current is distinct from the local wavevector (not weighted) that could be observed by means of quantum weak measurement. For vector light, the current (Poynting vector) contains an additional term corresponding to the photon spin, recently identified for paraxial light…
