摘要: Plasmon polariton type of excitations exist in widely different systems, e.g., surface plasmons metal films or two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor heterostructures and metal-oxide-semiconductor devices. Lateral microstructures are used as grating couplers to couple with radiation and, starting from 2D electronic realize systems even lower dimensionalities. In this review I will discuss some general aspects for plasmon dimensions.
