Abstract
Simulation models for the optical properties of 2D quasiperiodic plasmonic structures often fail due to their lack of periodicity. Therefore, it is necessary to find an appropriate model to describe the optical properties of such structures. In this paper we present a model which is able to describe the optical spectra of 2D metallic photonic quasicrystals on top of a waveguide. We take the 2D Fourier transform of the structure and consider all possible waveguide modes in the specific energy range. By utilizing the dispersion relations, the optical spectra can be calculated. The presented model is verified by measurements of a quasiperiodic lattice as well as a rectangular lattice as reference. We find distinct differences in the behavior of quasicrystalline vs rectangular lattices, in particular when investigating rotated and elongated plasmonic particles.
