摘要
We demonstrate that surface plasmon fields can be imaged in real time by detecting the fluorescence of a molecular film close to the plasmon carrying metal surface. We use this method to image the field profile of surface plasmons launched at lithographically designed nanoscopic defects. (C) 2002 American Institute of Physics.
