Showing papers on "Surface plasmon resonance published in 1968"


Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, anomalies found in the intensity of concave diffraction gratings have been analyzed in terms of an interaction between the incoming photon and a surface-plasmon resonance in the grating surface.
Abstract: Anomalies found in the intensity of $p$-polarized light from concave diffraction gratings have been analyzed in terms of an interaction between the incoming photon and a surface-plasmon resonance in the grating surface. There is clear evidence for zone gaps in the dispersion curves which we have constructed for surface plasmons in Al and Au. The phenomena reported here may be regarded as manifestations of second- and possibly higher-order plasmon-grating interactions.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: The reflectance of silver decreases in the energy range of surface plasmons because of coupling between light and surface waves via surface roughness as mentioned in this paper, and the reflectance increases with the number of surface waves.
