Abstract:Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are widely used for surface micro/nanostructures detection. However, because of the limitations of the common SPPs excitation conditions, it is difficult to flexibly detect surface micro/nanostructures in the air without being limited by the substrate structure. In this paper, a new SPPs excitation structure is developed. This structure is a silver film covered hemi-microsphere. SPPs could be excited on the surface of the Ag film, and induce collective oscillations of free ele… Show more
