Electric current-driven spectral tunability of surface plasmon polaritons in gold coated tapered fibers

Here we introduce the concept of electrically tuning surface plasmon polaritons using current-driven heat dissipation, allowing controlling plasmonic properties via a straightforward-to-access quantity. The key idea is based on an electrical current flowing through the plasmonic layer, changing plas...
