Technion - Israel Inst. of Technol., Haifa
Abstract :
Storing energy within a nanodielectric near metal structures in the form of waves (plasmon- polaritons) or quasistatic (particle-plasmon) is thoroughly analyzed. Limitations of ultra high confinement are stated in various configurations. Metal nonlinearity may enhance the confinement.
