研究目的
Investigating the properties and conditions for the existence of spoof surface plasmons (SSP) at frequencies much lower than the metal plasma frequency, and exploring their potential applications.
研究成果
The study demonstrates that spoof surface plasmons can mimic the properties of surface plasmon polaritons at frequencies much lower than the metal plasma frequency. SSP waves exhibit unique properties such as hybrid TM and TE modes and self-collimation at specific frequencies, which could have important applications in future optoelectronic devices.
研究不足
The analysis becomes invalid at much lower frequencies where the metal permittivity is no longer given by the simple model. The effective medium approach is applicable only for wavelengths much larger than the lattice constant.
