Plasmon-polariton waves in cylindrical guiding structures

In the article dispersion characteristics and attenuation characteristics plasmon-polariton waves cylindrical metal guiding structures are discussed. Schedules of distribution of electric field on radial coordinate are provided. Difference of a range of waves of a cylindrical metal wire from a range of waves of an open round dielectric waveguide with a metal film is shown. Identification of plasmon-polariton waves by quantity of maxima of an electric field in a metal layer is offered.
