Dirac Phase interferometer in a plasmonic waveguide
arXiv:1505.07735
Abstract
By viewing plasmon waves in metallic waveguides as propagating electric and magnetic dipoles we show that according to laws of quantum mechanics they will acquire additional phase when propagating through space with static magnetic field. The new effect is physically different from conventional magneto-plasmonic phenomena and is sufficiently strong to observe it under routinely accessible experimental conditions.
