Properties of white light reconstruction in plasmon holography

Abstract

Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is the coupling between charge-density wave of free electrons and electromagnetic wave, such as visible light, at a metal surface. The property of SPR is characterized by the peculiar dispersion relation and the enhancement of electromagnetic near field. Purpose of this work is achievement of high diffraction efficiency and functional reconstruction of evanescent holography. We theoretically and experimentally investigate the characteristic of color selective reconstruction from white light excitation in plasmon holography.
