The Newcastle University research output collection, currently available on ePrints, will shortly be moving to a new open repository platform, Figshare. To prepare for the data migration we have paused adding new content to ePrints, and will resume once the new repository is launched. During this time you will continue to have access to ePrints (but no new content will appear). We will share updates here when available.

Abstract

In this work, we propose a mechanism to steer and tailor surface plasmon propagation by using graded index concepts. In this approach, a block of dielectric with fixed thickness is placed on top of a semi-infinite metal. The beam steerers are then designed by simply changing the height of the dielectric in the direction perpendicular to the propagation axis. The analytical design is presented and several structures are evaluated with the ability to steer the incoming surface plasmons at any desired output angle.
