Abstract :
We have demonstrated a markedly enhanced control of surface plasmon polariton propagation using the tool of transformational optics in the context of plasmonics. We have shown that we can reduce considerably the scattering of SPP on a bumped surface, remove the scattering due to a metallic mirror and concentrate or rotate a SPP field. Importantly, all the proposed designs work equally well for electromagnetic waves.
