Enhancement of Plasmonic Performance in Epitaxial Silver at Low Temperature

Abstract We report longer surface plasmon polariton propagation distance based on crystalline crystal silver at low temperature. Although enhanced plasmonic performance at low temperature has been predicted for a long time, it has not been directly observed on polycrystalline silver films which suff...
