Abstract
In this work, we investigate polarization-dependent excitation of the propagating surface plasmon polariton (SPP) modes in gold nanowires (Au NWs) combined with gold nanoparticles (Au NPs). The light coupling from focused light to SPPs on Au NWs is investigated for different structural combinations of Au NWs with Au NPs, using full-wave finite-element numerical simulations. The results show that the excitation of SPPs changes remarkably on varying the orientation of the NP on NW or the polarization angle of the incident light. Metallic NWs combined with NPs can be applied to the polarization-resolved SPP coupling in various optical and optoelectronic devices including photonic circuits and optical sensors.
