 ABSTRACT

Optical fibers now span the globe, guiding light signals that convey voluminous streams
of voice communications and vast amounts of data. Hence the drive towards highly integrated
optical devices and circuits for use in high-speed communication technologies and in future all-
optical photonic chips has generated considerable interest in the unique properties of surface
Plasmon polarities (SPP).
SPP are electromagnetic waves that are confined to the interface between materials with
dielectric constants of opposite sign. This confinement of the SPP field to the interface opens the
possibility of overcoming the diffraction limit encountered in classical optics and of realizing
planar nanoscale, highly integrated optical devices.
In our presentation we will discuss a new approach for generating intense Nano-scale SPP
spots. The constructive interference of SPPs launched by nonmetric holes allows focusing SPP
into an intense sub-wavelength spot of 380 nm width. Near-field scanning optical microscopy is
used to image the local SPP fields. The resulting SPP intensity patterns are accurately described
in calculations based on dipolar SPP sources at each hole as well as on Finite-Difference Time-
Domain simulations.
The combination of a focusing array and Nano-wave guide may serve a basic element in
planar Nano-photonic circuits. Possible applications to surface-enhanced optical sensing of
molecular species will be discussed. In a nutshell, it is a technology that squeezes electromagnetic
waves into minuscule structures that may yield a new generation of superfast computer chips and
ultrasensitive molecular detectors.
