Problems solved by technology

[0005] In addition, the transmission distance of traditional SPPs (abbreviation for surface plasmon polaritons or surface plasmon waves) is very short, and the transmission length in the visible light band is between 10-100um, which cannot meet the requirements for light transmission distance in optical components.

Abstract

The invention discloses surface wave excitation and long-distance transmission structures based on metamaterials. The first structure, the second structure and the third structure are free space coupling structures, and the fourth structure is an end face coupling structure. All the four structures do not need to coupled through lenses high in refractive index, integration of optical elements is facilitated, meanwhile, the propagation distance of light can reach millimeter magnitude, and the structures can be widely used in the optical elements. The structures are simple, SPPs are easily coupled under the circumstance that no lens high in refractive index is used, integration of the optical elements is facilitated, meanwhile, the propagation distance of the light can reach the millimeter magnitude, and the structures can be widely used in the optical elements.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the excitation and long-distance transport structures of surface waves based on metamaterials. Background technique [0002] Surface plasmons (surface plasmons) is a kind of electromagnetic surface wave, its field intensity is the largest at the surface, and it is an exponentially decaying field in the direction perpendicular to the interface. It can be excited by electrons and light waves. Since in general (for a continuous metal-medium interface), the wave vector of the surface plasmon wave is larger than that of the light wave, it is impossible to directly excite the surface plasmon wave (propagating surface plasmon) propagating along the interface with the light wave. [0003] In order to stimulate surface plasmon waves, some special structures need to be introduced to achieve wave vector matching. There are two commonly used ones: one is the Kretschmann structure, that is, the metal film is directly coated on the p...
