article published Yao Kou author Jens Förstner author 1580000-0001-7059-9862 61 department We study the formation of subwavelength solitons in binary metal-dielectric lattices. We show that the transverse modulation of the lattice constant breaks the fundamental plasmonic band and suppresses the discrete diffraction of surface plasmon waves. New types of plasmonic solitons are found, and their characteristics are analyzed. We also demonstrate the existence of photonic-plasmonic vector solitons and elucidate their propagation properties. https://ris.uni-paderborn.de/download/3896/3897/2015-03 Kou,Förstner_Subwavelength binary plasmonic solitons_Optics letters.pdf application/pdfno The Optical Society2015 eng tet_topic_polariton 0146-9592 1539-47943896010.1364/ol.40.000851 406851-854 Kou, Yao, and Jens Förstner. “Subwavelength Binary Plasmonic Solitons.” <i>Optics Letters</i> 40, no. 6 (2015): 851–54. <a href="https://doi.org/10.1364/ol.40.000851">https://doi.org/10.1364/ol.40.000851</a>.
