Abstract

The implementation of a three-dimensional (3D) finite difference time domain (FDTD) scheme for simulating wave propagation in surface plasmon polaritons bandgap (SPPBG) waveguides, was investigated. An SPPBG structure resulted on introducing a doubly periodic perturbation in planar dielectric-plasma interface. In the direction normal to dielectric-plasma interface, the plasma half space was truncated by a perfect electrically conducting plate. The results show that straight SPPBG waveguide section allows signals to propagate with small losses.
