A highly efficient surface plasmon polaritons excitation achieved with a metal-coupled metal-insulator-metal waveguide
We propose a novel metal-coupled metal-insulator-metal (MC-MIM) waveguide which can achieve a highly efficient surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) excitation. The MC-MIM waveguide is formed by inserting a thin metal film in the insulator of an MIM. The introduction of the metal film, func...
