Abstract

Optical properties of high-frequency Au gratings with a fixed period (296.6 ± 0.5 nm) and a variable modulation depth are studied using measurements of spectral and angular dependence of transmission and reflection of polarized light in order to build the dispersion curves of excited optical modes and to identify their types. It was shown that in gratings with small modulation depth only propagating surface plasmon-polaritons (SPP) modes were observed. With increasing of modulation depth, the intensity of SPP decreases and localized plasmon (LP) resonance appears, which is more intense at small incident angles, and overlaps with the SPP modes. For grating with isolated grooves (nanowires), mostly LP resonance is observed. After additional deposition of gold onto grating with isolated grooves, the intensity of the SPP mode increases again, and the LP band maximum shifts to longer wavelengths.
