Abstract :
This paper reports the research on plasmonics-based devices. Coupling characteristics of both long- and short-range surface plasmon polariton (SPP) waveguide are analyzed. Basing on the hybrid coupler structures, TM/TE polarization splitter and integrated sensor are developed. We also propose and demonstrate plasmonic enhanced organic solar cells using metal nanoparticles.
