We show that surface plasmon polariton propagation on a metal surface adjacent to a gain medium can compensate for the metallic loss, thereby increasing the propagation length. Rigorous and numerical finite element studies of various interface geomet... Read More about Propagation of surface plasmon polaritons on the boundary of a metal and a gain medium.

Excitation and direct imaging of surface plasmon polariton modes in the near-infrared (2004)
Conference Proceeding
Tetz, K., Rokitski, R., Nezhad, M., & Fainman, Y. (2004). Excitation and direct imaging of surface plasmon polariton modes in the near-infrared. . https://doi.org/10.1109/LEOS.2004.1363558

This paper describes techniques for the simultaneous excitation and imaging of various SPP modes in a 2-D periodic hole array, and show that these features are consistent with the dispersion relation for SPPs on a periodically modulated surface.

Gain assisted propagation of surface plasmon polaritons on planar metallic waveguides (2004)
Journal Article
Nezhad, M., Tetz, K., & Fainman, Y. (2004). Gain assisted propagation of surface plasmon polaritons on planar metallic waveguides. Optics Express, 12(17), 4072-4079. https://doi.org/10.1364/OPEX.12.004072

The propagation of surface plasmon polaritons on metallic waveguides adjacent to a gain medium is considered. It is shown that the presence of the gain medium can compensate for the absorption losses in the metal. The conditions for existence of a su...
