The electromagnetic behavior and interactions with metallic structures make surface plasmon (SP) possess various unusual properties. The aim of this thesis is to investigate the physical properties of extraordinary transmission, which is one the unusual properties of SP. In addition, we focus on the near field enhancement induced by SP resonance. Since the activities of SP are so sensitive to metallic structures, we introduce the finite-difference time domain and coupled-wave methods to corporately study the interactions between SP and shaped structures. At first, we examine the SP-assisted transmission and the field distributions near metal surface. Based on this analysis, we proposed a liquid crystal based plasmonic display device and further discuss its operating properties. In the following sections, we study the strong field enhancement and localization of SP and further utilize semiclassical approach to study the spontaneous emission (SE) of an atom in the presence of metallic gratings. Through various numerical studies, we also reveal some physical essence of SE behavior when an atom resonantly couples to SP modes.Contents Abstract Table of Contents Chapter 1 Introduction ……………………………………………1 Research Background and Motivations……………………………1 Literature Review…………………………………………………2 Chapter 2 Theories………………………………………………………7 2.1 Surface Plasmon Polaritions…………………………………7 2.1.1 Plasma Oscillation and the Behavior of the Supported Electromagnetic waves……………………………………………7 2.1.2 Surface Plasmon Polaritons in Different Geometries…8 2.1.3 Excitation Configuration of Surface Plasmon Polaritons……15 2.1.4 Surface Plasmon Polaritons on Periodic Structures…17 2.2 Mechanisms of Extraordinary Transmission ………………18 2.3 Spontaneous Emission Enhancement in Resonant Cavities ……22 2.3.1 Modification of Spontaneous Emission in Cavities …………22 2.3.2 Resonant Coupling of Semiconductor Spontaneous Emission into Surface Plasmons…………………………………24 2.4 Finite-Difference Time-Domain Method……………………26 2.4.1 Numerical requirements of the problems………………26 2.4.2 Introduction to the finite-difference time-domain method……27 2.4.3 Drude dispersive …………………………………………31 2.4.4 Bloch's theorem and periodic boundary conditions …………32 2.4.5 Calculation of the spontaneous emission lifetime ……………33 2.5 Coupled-wave Method ………………………………………35 Chapter 3 Effective Transmission with Metal Gratings ………………37 3.1 Connection between Surface Plasmons and Structure Shapes ……38 3.2 Design of Surface Plasmon Assisted-Transmission ………………47 3.3 Tunable Plasmonic Devices with Anisotropic Dielectric Materials ……………………………………………………………52 Chapter 4 Simulations of Near-Field Enhancement and Light Emission with Metal Gratings …………………………………………64 4.1 Localization of Electromagnetic Fields by Surface Plasmon Resonance ……………………………………………………………64 4.2 Transition Dipole Interaction with Patterned Metallic Structures...71 Chapter 5 Conclusions………………………………………………86 Reference …………………………………………………………… 874173281 bytesapplication/pdfen-US表面電漿子原子自激放光時域有限差分法耦合波法surface plasmon polaritonspontaneous emissionFDTDCWMthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/50715/1/ntu-95-R93941017-1.pdf
