Abstract
We study the coupling of a finite number of Bloch surface waves (BSWs) propagating in different directions at the surface of a
dielectric multilayer. These surface waves arise from a set of diffraction orders associated to a grating on the bottom surface of the substrate
that is illuminated by a normally incident beam. Simultaneous excitation of multiple BSWs is possible with a set of diffraction orders having
the same radial spatial frequency. Using rigorous electromagnetic theory, we design gratings for simultaneous excitation of two, four and six
BSWs propagating in directions separated by π, π/2 and π/3 azimuthal intervals, respectively
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
