Graphene-based active slow surface plasmon polaritons
Finding new ways to control and slow down the group velocity of light in media remains a major challenge in the field of optics. For the design of plasmonic slow light structures, graphene represents an attractive alternative to metals due to its strong field confinement, comparably low ohmic loss and versatile tunability. Here we propose a novel nanostructure consisting of a monolayer graphene...
متن کاملExcitation and active control of propagating surface plasmon polaritons in graphene.
We demonstrate the excitation and gate control of highly confined surface plasmon polaritons propagating through monolayer graphene using a silicon diffractive grating. The normal-incidence infrared transmission spectra exhibit pronounced dips due to guided-wave resonances, whose frequencies can be tuned over a range of ~80 cm(-1) by applying a gate voltage. This novel structure provides a way ...
متن کاملActive Control of Graphene-Based Unidirectional Surface Plasmon Launcher
The manipulation of surface plasmon polariton (SPP) propagation is a basic subject for the realization of novel optical devices. Although the unidirectional SPP launcher has been demonstrated, it has been difficult to realize active control suitable for device applications. Here, we propose a graphene device with electrically controllable propagation of SPPs. The source/drain electrode of this ...
متن کاملResonant tunneling of surface plasmon-polaritons.
The tunneling of surface plasmon-polaritons (SPPs) across an interruption in the metallic film supporting them is numerically investigated in details. Both non-symmetrical and symmetrical geometries are considered. A very high tunneling efficiency is calculated for the long-range surface plasmon in the symmetrical geometry, with an amplitude transmission as high as 80% over a 5 microm gap for a...
متن کاملChiral surface plasmon polaritons on metallic nanowires.
Chiral surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) can be generated by linearly polarized light incident at the end of a nanowire, exciting a coherent superposition of three specific nanowire waveguide modes. Images of chiral SPPs on individual nanowires obtained from quantum dot fluorescence excited by the SPP evanescent field reveal the chirality predicted in our theoretical model. The handedness and s...
