Plasmonic power splitters based on hybrid plasmonic waveguides (HPWs) are proposed and investigated. The HPW consists of a high-permittivity semiconductor nanowire embedded in a SiO2 dielectric film near a metal surface. The propagation behaviors of Surface Plasmon Polaritons (SPPs) in HPWs are numerically simulated by the 3D finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The incident field is transferred from the middle waveguide to the waveguides on both sides due to the coupling between adjacent waveguides. The intensity distributions can be explained by the multimode interference of SPPs supermodes. According to the field intensity distribution of five HPWs, we design a 1 × 3 power splitter and a 1 × 2 power splitter by reducing the length of some specific waveguides.

The strong local property of surface plasmon polaritons can break through the diffraction limit, and reduce the propagation of corner scattering on nanoscale. The nanoantenna structure based on the plasmon resonant effect can collect the light energy effectively, and the local field enhancement effects of the structure have extensive application prospect. The field distribution and field enhancement effects of optical antenna under nanoscale are calculated with finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. Several different structures of nanooptical antenna are studied, and their enhancement properties are compared in this paper.

Changing the morphology of noble metal nanoparticles and polarization dependence of nanoparticles with different morphologies is an important part of further research on surface plasma enhancement. Therefore, we used the method based on Matlab simulation to provide a simple and effective method for preparing the morphologies of Au nanoparticles with different morphologies, and prepared the structure of Au nanoparticles with good uniformity and different morphologies by oblique angle deposition (OAD) technology. The change of the surface morphology of nanoparticles from spherical to square to diamond can be effectively controlled by changing the deposition angle. The finite difference time domain (FDTD) method was used to simulate the electromagnetic fields of Au nanoparticles with different morphologies to explore the polarization dependence of nanoparticles with different shapes, which was in good agreement with Raman spectrum.

AbstractTo study the lightning electromagnetic pulse (LEMP) coupling and protection problems of shielding enclosure with penetrating wire, we adopt the model with proper size which is close to the practical engineering and the two-step finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method is used for calculation in this paper. It is shown that the coupling voltage on the circuit lead inside the enclosure increases about 34 dB, when add 1.0 m long penetrating wire at the aperture, comparing with the case without penetrating wire. Meanwhile, the waveform, has the same wave outline as the lightning current source, shows that the penetrating wire brings a large number of low frequency component into the enclosure. The coupling effect in the enclosure will reduce greatly when penetrating wire has electrical connection with the enclosure at the aperture and the coupling voltage increase only about 12 dB than the case without penetrating wire. Moreover, the results show that though the waveguide pipe can reduce the coupling effect brought by the penetrating wire, the exposing part of penetrating wire can increase the coupling when the penetrating wire outside the enclosure is longer than the waveguide pipe and the longer the exposing part is, the stronger the coupling is.
