Metastable states of surface plasmon vacuum near the interface between metal and nonlinear dielectric
Abstract
Zero-point fluctuations of surface plasmon modes near the interface between metal and nonlinear dielectric are shown to produce a thin layer of altered dielectric constant near the interface. This effect may be sufficiently large to produce multiple metastable states of the surface plasmon vacuum.
