Abstract

The optical excitation and decay of surface plasmons on Ag films is reported. The optical decay is observed as an annular cone of light when the substrate is in the form of a hemisphere. The polarization and angular distribution of this cone radiation is presented and compared to the roughness-coupled surface plasmon radiation simultaneously emitted from the Ag.
