On-chip focusing of light by metallic nanotip

We present a numerical simulations, fabrication and experimental results for on-chip focusing of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) in metal nanotip coupled to the silicon waveguide. © 2011 Optical Society of America.

On-chip focusing of light by Metallic Nanotip

We investigate numerically and experimentally the on-chip nanoscale focusing of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) in metallic nanotip coupled to the silicon waveguide. Strong field enhancement is observed at the apex of the tip. © 2010 Optical Society of America.
