Above all, it focuses on using the magnetic field as an external agent to modify the properties of the SPPs, and therefore achieving active devices. Surface plasmons are evanescent waves that arise at metal?dielectric interfaces. They can be strongly confined (beyond the light diffraction limit), and provide a strong enhancement of the electromagnetic field at the interface. These waves have led to the development of plasmonic circuitry, which is a key candidate as an alternative to electronic circuitry and traditional optical telecommunication devices, since it is faster than the former and less bulky than the latter. Adopting both a theoretical and an experimental point of view, the book analyzes the magnetic modulation in SPPs by means of an interferometer engraved in a multilayer combining Au and Co. In this interferometer, which acts like a modulator, the SPP magnetic modulation is studied in detail, as are the parameters that have a relevant impact on it, simple ways to enhance it, its spectral dependence, and the highly promising possibility of using this system for biosensing. The thesis ultimately arrives at the conclusion that this method can provide values of modulations similar to other active methods used in plasmonics. . 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aLasers 606 $aPhotonics 606 $aSurfaces (Physics) 606 $aInterfaces (Physical sciences) 606 $aThin films 606 $aNanotechnology 606 $aNanoscale science 606 $aNanoscience 606 $aNanostructures 606 $aMaterials?Surfaces 606 $aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31030 606 $aSurface and Interface Science, Thin Films$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25160 606 $aNanotechnology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z14000 606 $aNanoscale Science and Technology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25140 606 $aSurfaces and Interfaces, Thin Films$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z19000 615 0$aLasers. 615 0$aPhotonics. 615 0$aSurfaces (Physics). 615 0$aInterfaces (Physical sciences). 615 0$aThin films. 615 0$aNanotechnology. 615 0$aNanoscale science. 615 0$aNanoscience. 615 0$aNanostructures. 615 0$aMaterials?Surfaces. 615 14$aOptics, Lasers, Photonics, Optical Devices. 615 24$aSurface and Interface Science, Thin Films. 615 24$aNanotechnology. 615 24$aNanoscale Science and Technology. 615 24$aSurfaces and Interfaces, Thin Films. 676 $a621.36 700 $aMartín Becerra$b Diana$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0817810 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910151856703321 996 $aActive Plasmonic Devices$92000081 997 $aUNINA
