Coupled-Plasmon-Controlled Transmission in Distributed Bragg Structures

Abstract

Using the finite element method we investigate plasmon-mediated transmission in a periodically modulated metal-insulator-metal (MIM) grating. We compute the eigenmodes of a silver-silica-silver conformal coating atop an array of close-packed silica rods, and correlate them with extinction and transmission characteristics of the structure. We observe efficient coupling of impinging plane-waves to gap plasmon modes, allowing control of both bandwidth and intensity of the transmitted radiation.
