Plasmonic waveguides exploit surface plasmons—coherent oscillations of free electrons at metal–dielectric interfaces—to guide and confine light at dimensions below the diffraction limit. By coupling ...

In this paper, a circular hybrid plasmonic waveguide-fed nano-antenna (CHPWFNA) has been introduced for operating at the standard telecommunication wavelength of 1,550 nm. For the first time, the ...

What are modal effects? Integrated photonics—the devices and the materials used to make them happen. One of the key planar-waveguide configurations: the ring resonator. The roots of waveguide optics ...

Charts are basically simple representations of price history, but they are often endowed with some almost mystical qualities by over-complicated analysis of obscure patterns. The most reliable ...
