Dielectric-Grating-Coupled Surface Plasmon Resonance From the Back Side of the Metal Film for Ultrasensitive Sensing

We propose a dielectric grating that can launch surface plasmon resonance (SPR) modes efficiently on the other side of flat metal films, which is similar to the conventional prism coupling mechanism. Importantly, this structure can excite SPR under the normal incident light, which is particularly su...
