yes, only TM polarization can excite SPP, but for two infinite layer, I thank (Hz and ky) , (Hy and and kz) are both TM polarization. can you explain the different between this two condition. On Tue, Dec 11, 2012 at 12:39 AM, Judson Ryckman < judson.d.ryck...@vanderbilt.edu> wrote: > You should

You should only be able to activate the SPP for TM polarization.. Which appears to indeed be what you are observing! --Judson On Mon, Dec 10, 2012 at 9:35 AM, huang bo wrote: > hi everyone! > below is the .ctl file I use to calculate the dispersion relation of surface > plasmon > I can get the di

hi everyone! below is the .ctl file I use to calculate the dispersion relation of surface plasmon I can get the dispersion relation when the source component set as Hz and ky run from kmin to kmax. the queer problem is that when I set the source component as Hy, and kz run from kmin to kmax, I can
