Long‐range surface plasmon‐polaritons in asymmetric layer structures

We analyze the effect of asymmetric embedding of thin silver layers on the propagation length and the power flow distribution of long‐range surface plasmon‐polaritons (LRSP). We show that in such configurations LRSP can achieve propagation length which exceeds the value for the symmetric case by up to 3 orders of magnitude.
