Abstract

Optical spectra and angular dependence of electromagnetic emission from Al-Al oxide-Ag and Al-Al oxide-Au tunnel junctions are reported. Data from Ag junctions are consistent with the assumption of roughness induced decoupling of surface polaritons, while data from Au junctions suggest that the emission results from direct coupling of current fluctuations in the junction to the external radiation fields.
