Real-time surface plasmon polariton propagation in silver nanowires
Wenhua Zhao, Ãlvaro RodrÃguez Echarri, Alberto Eljarrat +7
Electron microscopy techniques such as electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) facilitate the spatio-spectral characterization of plasmonic nanostructures. In this work, a time-de…
