Morphological influence on surface--wave propagation at the planar interface of a metal film and a columnar thin film

Abstract

The selection of a higher vapor deposition angle when growing a columnar thin film (CTF) leads to surface-wave propagation at a planar metal-CTF interface with phase velocity of lower magnitude and shorter propagation range. Acordingly, a higher angle of plane-wave incidence is required to excite that surface wave in a modified Kretschmann configuration.
