Abstract

We investigate the dispersion relation and extinction properties of surface plasmons in an array of gold nanoparticle chains under s-polarized plane wave excitations, through experiment and simulation. Our results reveal that the dispersion and extinction properties of gold nanoparticle chains at an air/glass interface are significantly different from those in a uniform medium. Under total internal reflection, the dispersion is much larger than that above total internal reflection and 100% extinction can be reached. We show that the large dispersion under total internal reflection can be explained by dipole fields and coupling at the air/glass interface.

(a) The point dipoles were on an air/glass interface; (b) the point dipoles were in a uniform glass medium.

Fig. 10. Eindu for a single chain of point dipoles on an air/glass interface, which are oscillating at a frequency of 1.6 c/µm. The point dipoles were polarized in +y direction and were spaced by 140 nm in x direction. kx spans the first irreducible Brillouin Zone from 0 to π/d with a fixed interval.
