A Slot-Based Surface Plasmon-Polariton Waveguide With Long-Range Propagation and Superconfinement

A full-vector spectral element method (SEM) is applied to model and simulate surface plasmon-polariton (SPP) waveguides. Gauss-Lobatto-Legendre (GLL) polynomials are used to construct higher-order basis functions to achieve spectral accuracy. A discretization scheme featuring a nonuniform mesh with...
