Surface plasmon-polaritons and waveguide modes in prismatic structures

Abstract

The surface plasmon-polaritons and waveguide modes in prismatic structures are researched. The metallic layer is deposited on glass prism in the first structure and dielectric layer was deposited on metallic film in the second structure. The reflectance from the metallic layer equal zero at assiduously defined parameters. The first structure has high sensitivity of the minimum reflection angle; the second structure has high sensitivity of the reflectance from change refractive index of the liquid.
