Abstract :
We demonstrate transmission enhancement through a metamaterial slab due to the excitation of spoof surface plasmons. Our result shows two essential properties of surface plasmons for practical applications: the field localization involving both sides of the slab and the coupling ability between surface plasmons and diffracted waves. Therefore, we believe that our result has potential for plasmonic sensing, waveguiding, and configurable beam forming.
