We have demonstrated the surface plasmon-polariton interference using a long-range surface plasmon-polariton waveguide coupler. A clear interference fringe with the visibility of 87 % was observed. The coupling ratio of the waveguide coupler was estimated to be 64:36 by two-photon interference experiments.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
