摘要: Here we propose and study a novel type of plasmonic resonators based on metal-insulator-metal waveguide side-coupled magneto-optical disk controlled by an external magnetic field. The wave-number change the transmission surface-plasmon-polaritons (SPPs) can be tuned altering field reversible on/off switching running SPP modes reversal direction is demonstrated. Resonant enhancement magnetoplasmonic modulation more than 200 times leads to contrast ratio tenfold (90-% modulation) keeping moderate insertion loss within optical bandwidth hundreds GHz. Numerical simulations confirm predictions derived analytical formulas high-contrast submicrometer ultrasmall resonator.
