Abstract

The invention discloses a three-section surface plasmon polariton lens, and relates to a surface plasmon polariton. The lens is formed by three layers of rectangular grooves etched on the surface of a metal, a small-size surface plasmon polariton focus breaking through the diffraction limit is formed under the illumination of linearly polarized light, the width of the grooves is lambda / 2, the center positions of each layer of grooves are distributed on three line segments, and for the i layer (i=1, 2, 3), the length and the center position of each layer of grooves are designed as follows: the distances from the midpoints of the left and right sides of the i layer of grooves to the focus separately satisfy f+(i-1)d+k lambda / 3 and f+(i-1)d+(k+1) lambda / 3, wherein k is the level of a groove, namely the k difference of two adjacent grooves on the same layer is 3, and each groove corresponds to a Fresnel zone in the traditional zone plate; and when the plane wave polarizing in the y direction is perpendicular to the illumination structure on the surface of the metal, the surface plasmon polaritons are excited by the same phase on each grove, and constructively interfere with one another when being propagated to a focus to form the focus.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to surface plasmons, in particular to a three-stage surface plasmon lens capable of realizing ultra-small focus. Background technique

[0002] Surface Plasmon Polariton (Surface Plasmon Polariton) is an electromagnetic field surface mode localized on the metal / medium surface, which is characterized by the exponential decay of the electromagnetic field strength in the direction perpendicular to the metal surface; Wavenumbers propagate along the metal surface. Under certain conditions, energy conversion between light and surface plasmons can be achieved. This allows people to use surface plasmons to manipulate light in the range of micrometer and nanoscale. Research on various functional devices based on surface plasmons and related theoretical research has become a hot spot in recent years, attracting the attention of many researchers.

[0003] Among the many planar photonic devices of surface plasmons, the research on the lens ...
