Extraordinary magnetooptical effects and transmission through the metal-dielectric plasmonic systems

preprint2006arXivOpen access

Abstract

We report on significant enhancement of the magnetooptical effects in gyrotropic systems of a metallic film perforated by subwavelength hole arrays and a uniform dielectric film magnetized perpendicular to its plane. Calculations, based on a rigorous coupled-wave analysis, demonstrate the Faraday and Kerr effect spectra having several resonance peaks in the near infrared range, some of them coinciding with transmittance peaks. Qualitative analysis revealed that magnetic polaritons being coupled magnetic-film waveguiding modes with surface plasmons play a crucial role in the observed effect.
