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...

Eigenmode analysis of optical propagation in large-scale subwavelength periodic nanostructures (2002)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Summary form only given. We describe a method for rigorously computing the mode characteristics of a periodic nanostructure, and its application to the accurate design of composite optical materials and novel optical devices. In a form-birefringent n... Read More about Eigenmode analysis of optical propagation in large-scale subwavelength periodic nanostructures.
