- Optical excitation of surface modes in selectively gold filled photonic crystal fibers
Optical excitation of surface modes in selectively gold filled photonic crystal fibers
in: DoKDoK 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 semi-analytical calculations and a finite element method.
