“…Spoof surface plasmon polaritons (SSPPs), also known as plasmonic metamaterials, inherit the properties of field confinement and local field enhancement from natural surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) by decorating metal surfaces with subwavelength corrugations [ 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 ]. Thus far, various devices have been proposed based on SSPPs, such as filters [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ], couplers [ 14 , 15 ], amplifiers [ 16 , 17 , 18 ], harmonic generators [ 19 , 20 , 21 ], sensors [ 22 , 23 , 24 ] and lens [ 25 , 26 ]. The integration of spoof plasmonic devices/components into traditional circuits requires conversion from guided waves to spoof plasmonic waves.…”
