Abstract

This article considers a miniature MIMIM waveguide plasmonic coupler and presents the power exchange dynamics in it. The role of the system parameters as well as the operating wavelength on the coupling dynamics is identified. The field dynamics has been simulated using finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) based numerical method. The investigation will help to design an experimental miniature plasmonic waveguide coupler and to optimize the same.

Keywords
