摘要: The theory of hybrid surface plasma modes in metal-coated dielectric cylinders has been developed recent years. We demonstrate that tapered fibers with a uniform waist and circular metal coating can be designed for an efficient excitation the fundamental mode. Our experimental results are good agreement give basis development novel type all-fiber polarization-independent refractive-index sensor tunable broadband wavelength filter.
