Title: Plasmonic lattice solitons in metallic nanowire materials

Journal Article · · AIP Conference Proceedings
DOI:https://doi.org/10.1063/1.4946498· OSTI ID:22606519

In this paper, we demonstrate theoretically that the plasmonic lattice solitons (PLSs) are formed in array of metallic nanowires embedded in Kerr-type material. The strong nonlinearity at metal surface, combined with the tight confinement of the guiding modes of the metallic nanowires, provide the main physical mechanism for balancing the creation of plasmonic lattice solitons and wave diffraction. We show that the PLSs are satisfied in a verity of plasmonic systems, which have important applications in nanophotonics and subwavelength optics.
