Plasmon-Polaritons
Plasmons in the bulk oscillate at ωp determined by the free electron density and effective mass
Plasmons confined to surfaces that can interact with light to form propagating “surface plasmon polaritons (SPP)”
Confinement effects result in resonant SPP modes
in nanoparticles (localized plasmons)

Some of the challenges that face plasmonics research in the coming years are
(i) demonstrate optical frequency subwavelength metallic wired circuitswith a propagation loss that is comparable to conventional optical waveguides;
(ii) develop highly efficient plasmonic organic and inorganic LEDs with tunable radiation properties;
(iii) achieve active control of plasmonic signals by implementing electro-optic, all-optical, and piezoelectric modulation and gain mechanisms to plasmonic structures;
(iv) demonstrate 2D plasmonic optical components, including lenses and grating couplers,that can couple single mode fiber directly to plasmonic circuits;
(v) develop deep subwavelength plasmonic nanolithography over large surfaces;
(vi) develop highly sensitive plasmonic sensors that can couple to conventional waveguides;
(vii) demonstrate quantum information processing by mesoscopic plasmonics.

To derive the Dispersion Relation
of Surface Plasmons,
let’s start from the Drude Model
of dielectric constant of metals.

The fully occupied 4d band of Ag can influence the dynamical surface response in two distinct ways: • First, the s-d hybridization modifies the single-particle energies and wave functions.
As a result, the nonlocal density-density response function exhibits band structure effects.• Second, the effective time-varying fields are modified due to the mutual polarization of the s and d
electron densities.
Here we focus on the second mechanism for the following reason: At the parallel wave vectors of interest, the frequency of the Ag surface plasmon lies below the region of interband transitions. Thus, the relevant single-particle transitions all occur within the s-p band close to the Fermi energy where it displays excellent nearly-free-electron character.

If the electrons in a plasma are displaced from a uniform background of ions, electric fields will be built up in such a direction as to restore the neutrality of the plasma by pulling the electrons back to their original positions. Because of their inertia, the electrons will overshoot and oscillate around their equilibrium positions with a characteristic frequency known as the plasma frequency.
