Wavelength dependent birefringence of surface plasmon polaritonic crystals

A periodic array of elliptical nanoholes in a metal film acts as a thin two-dimensional birefringent crystal with wavelength dependent orientation of principal polarization eigenstates, the property which is not encountered in natural crystals. The transmission spectrum of such metallic nanostructur...
