Abstract


In this paper, we experimentally analyze the intensity and phase dependence of the electric current in an active long-range surface plasmon polariton (LRSPP) device. It consists of a metallic waveguide embedded in a dielectric material where we have included external electric contacts. Experimental results show that the intensity beam decays almost 15 dB when we apply 150 mW, as we can obtain a phase change of 15p for the same value of electric power.
