Abstract:The basic processes forming surface plasmon-polariton generation at a photonic crystal-metal interface are considered. Those are the emergence of a complicated mode structure in a crystal medium and energy exchange between modes in reflection from boundaries. The efficiency of surface plasmon-polariton excitation is studied at various parameters of the exciting wave. A particular attention is paid to the case where the wavevector of a reciprocal lattice is orthogonal to the exciting wave direction. In that cas… Show more
