Through interference of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs), near-field radiation transfer between pillar-array-structured surfaces was enhanced compared with that between plane surfaces. Even in nanoscale channels between the pillars, the SPPs could propagate, and then a kind of interference and resonance took place according to the depth of the channel between the pillars. With decreasing pillar height, the frequency at maximum radiation transfer was shifted to the high-frequency side. That is, spectral control of near-field radiation could be achieved using pillar-array-structured surfaces.

An optical spin-resolved scanning imaging technique was proposed by which the normal to the interface spin component of surface plasmon polaritons can be mapped and the three-dimensional spin vector can be reconstructed with the experimental result.

A theory of generation of low- and high-index Bessel surface plasmon polaritons and their superposition in a metal film of a finite thickness is developed. Correct analytical expressions are obtained for the field of two families of Bessel surface plasmon polariton modes formed inside and outside the metal layer. The intensity distribution near the boundary of the layer has been calculated and analyzed. A scheme for the experimental realization of a superposition of Bessel surface plasmon polaritons is suggested. Our study demonstrates that it is feasible to use the superposition of Bessel surface plasmon polaritons as a virtual tip for near-field optical microscopy with a nanoscale resolution.

Abstract The effect of the excitation of surface plasmon polaritons at the silver – chalcogenide glass interface on photostimulated diffusion of silver into the chalcogenide was studied for the first time. To excite plasmons, a high-frequency aluminum diffraction grating with a period of 248.5 nm was used, onto which a two-layer Ag–As2S3 structure was deposited. It was found that the process of photostimulated diffusion of silver into the chalcogenide layer is accelerated (that is, the photosensitivity of such a structure increases) when the surface plasmon polariton is excited at the Ag – As2S3 interface during the exposure. The dynamics of photostimulated changes in the optical characteristics of the structure, including the initial stage of the photodiffusion process, was registered by recording the changes in the plasmon excitation characteristics with the exposure time.
