Abstract :
Waveguide-integrated plasmonic crystals are fabricated and characterized using a hybrid platform where silver nanogap tilings are embedded in a layer of SiO2 on the surface of a SOI chip. Preliminary results of the second Bragg transmission spectra and asymmetric forward and backward transmission effect are presented.
