Analytical Calculations of Scattering Amplitude of Surface Plasmon Polaritons Excited by a Spherical Nanoantenna

Since surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are surface waves, they cannot be excited by an incident plane wave, because free-space photons do not possess a sufficient in-plane momentum. Phase matching between the incident light and SPP can be achieved using a high-refractive-index prism, grating, or na...
