Plasmonic effects in metal filled microstructured optical fibers
in: Deutsche Gesellschaft für angewandte Optik Proceedings (2011)
By blocking selected holes of photonic crystal fibers and filling them with liquid gold, we are able to introduce micron sized wires into silica fibers. We show that it is possible to excite surface plasmon polaritons by coupling from a fiber core mode and we will compare the experimental and the theoretical results using semianalytical calculations and a finite element method.
