Slow light in insulator–metal–insulator plasmonic waveguides

Slow light in insulator–metal–insulator plasmonic waveguides: "Emmanouil-Panagiotis Fitrakis, Thomas Kamalakis, Thomas Sphicopoulos
We study numerically the slow-light capability of insulator–metal–insulator (IMI) plasmonic waveguides. Metal-induced losses are included in the calculation of the dispersion relations, and their effect on the slow-light properties of the waveguide is investigated. In addition to ... [J. Opt. Soc. Am.
