Journal ArticleDOI
Long-range surface plasmon polaritons
TL;DR: Long-range surface plasmon polaritons (LRSPPs) are optical surface waves that propagate along a thin symmetric metal slab or stripe over an appreciable length as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Plasmon-polariton waves guided by thin lossy metal films of finite width: Bound modes of asymmetric structures
TL;DR: In this paper, the dispersion of the electromagnetic modes with film thickness and width has been assessed and the effects caused by varying the difference between the superstrate and substrate dielectric constants on the characteristics of the modes have been determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface plasmon–polariton amplifiers and lasers
Pierre Berini,Israel De Leon +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the compensation of loss and amplification of surface plasmons in waveguides and resonators is discussed, and future challenges, including how to overcome the large losses present in plasmonic systems that offer strong electromagnetic confinement, are also discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Amplification of long-range surface plasmons by a dipolar gain medium
Israel De Leon,Pierre Berini +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors provided the first direct measurement of gain in propagating plasmons using the long-range surface plasmon polariton supported by a symmetric metal stripe waveguide that incorporates optically pumped dye molecules in solution as the gain medium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Experimental observation of plasmon–polariton waves supported by a thin metal film of finite width
TL;DR: What are believed to be the first experimental observations of the existence of long-range plasmon-polariton waves, guided by a thin metal film of finite width, are presented.
