Plasmon Polaritons

This study theoretically investigated light reflection and transmission in a system composed of a thin metal layer (Ag) adjacent to a rugate filter (RF) having a harmonic refractive index profile. Narrow dips in reflectance and peaks in transmittance in the RF band gap were obtained due to the excitation of a Tamm plasmon polariton (TPP) at the Ag–RF interface. It is shown that the spectral position and magnitude of the TPP dips/peaks in the RF band gap depend on the harmonic profile parameters of the RF refractive index, the metal layer thickness, and the external medium refractive index. The obtained dependences for reflectance and transmittance allow selecting parameters of the system which can be optimized for various applications.

A method is proposed for the reconstruction of refractive index profile of planar waveguide from its fundamental mode intensity profile. The reconstruction is performed by fitting the calculated intensity distribution iteratively with the measured intensity distribution employing nonlinear least-squares regression technique. At each stage of iteration, new trial parameter values are generated and used to form a waveguide model approximated by a multilayer structure with stepwise index distribution, upon which the intensity distribution is then calculated by using the characteristic matrix technique. This method was numerically examined by using samples of either known or unknown analytic expression of the index profile.
