Controlling the directionality of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) has been widely studied, while the direction of SPPs was always switched by orthogonal polarizations in the reported methods. Here, we present a scheme to control the directionality of SPPs by arbitrary spin polarizations. Extremely, the device can split two quite adjacent polarization components to two opposite directions. The versatility of the presented design scheme can offer opportunities for polarization sensing, polarization splitting and polarization-controlled plasmonic devices.

Surface plasmon polaritons have attracted varies of interests due to its special properties, especially in the polarization-controlled devices. Typically, the polarization-controlled devices include directional coupling, focusing lens and plasmonic v
ortex lens, and almost all of them are controlled by the input circularly polarized light or the linearly polarized light. We present a novel device that realize the functions of directional coupling and focusing with high polarization extinction ratio for arbitrary spin of input light. This device offers opportunities for polarization sensing, polarization splitting and polarization-multiplexed near-field images and surface plasmon holography in the future.
We propose a new type of reflective polarizer based on polarization-dependent coupling to surface-plasmon polaritons (SPPs) from free space. This inexpensive polarizer is relatively narrowband but features an extinction ratio of up to 1000 with effic
iency of up to 95% for the desired polarization (numbers from a calculation), and thus can be stacked to achieve extinction ratios of 106 or more. As a proof of concept, we experimentally realized a polarizer based on nanoporous aluminum oxide that operates around a wavelength of 10.6 um, corresponding to the output of a CO2 laser, using aluminum anodization, a low-cost electrochemical process.
We have observed laser-like emission of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) decoupled to the glass prism in an attenuated total reflection setup. SPPs were excited by optically pumped molecules in a polymeric film deposited on the top of the silver fil
m. Stimulated emission was characterized by a distinct threshold in the input-output dependence and narrowing of the emission spectrum. The observed stimulated emission and corresponding to it compensation of the metallic absorption loss by gain enables many applications of metamaterials and nanoplasmonic devices.
We propose a scheme to obtain a low-loss propagation of Airy surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) along the interface between a dielectric and a negative-index metamaterial (NIMM). We show that, by using the transverse-magnetic mode and the related dest
ructive interference effect between electric and magnetic absorption responses, the propagation loss of the Airy SPPs can be largely suppressed when the optical frequency is close to the lossless point of the NIMM. As a result, the Airy SPPs obtained in our scheme can propagate more than 6-time long distance than that in conventional dielectric-metal interfaces.
The interference patterns of the surface plasmon polaritons(SPPs) on the metal surface from a point source are observed. These interference patterns come from the forward SPPs and the reflected one from the obstacles, such as straightedge,corner, and
ring groove structure. Innovation to the previous works, a point SPPs source with diameter of 100 nm is generated at the freely chosen positions on Au/air interface using near field excitation method. Such a point source provides good enough coherence to generate obvious interference phenomenon. The constructive and destructive interference patterns of the SPPs agree well with the numerical caculation. This point SPPs source may be useful in the investigation of plasmonics for its high coherence, deterministic position and minimum requirement for the initial light source.
