TLDR
In this paper, the conditions of excitation and the waveguide characteristics were determined in an analytical form for the TM0 mode of a planar waveguide with metal substrate, which has a surface character, in contrast to other (bulk) modes excited in the system.
Abstract
The conditions of excitation and the waveguide characteristics are determined in an analytical form for the TM0 mode of a planar waveguide with metal substrate. This mode has a surface character, in contrast to other (bulk) modes excited in the system. The propagation and damping constants and the energy flux density distributions are compared for the TM0 and TE0 modes.

Scattering suppression in plasmonic optics using a simple two-layer dielectric structure

TL;DR: In this paper, a planar structure consisting of two isotropic dielectric layers is proposed to minimize parasitic scattering in plasmonic elements, which is shown using rigorous electromagnetic simulations that the utilization of the proposed structure allows reducing the scattering losses by an order-of-magnitude (1% −2%).

Surface-polariton-like waves guided by thin, lossy metal films.

TL;DR: The dispersion relations are solved for waves guided by a thin, lossy metal film surrounded by media of dielectric constant and both radiative waves can be interpreted as spatial transients, which could have physical significance near a transverse plane.
