Résumé

We introduce two types of toroidal metamaterials which are invisible to surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) propagating on a metal surface. The former is a toroidal handlebody bridging remote holes on the metal surface: It works as a kind of plasmonic counterpart of electromagnetic wormholes. The latter is a toroidal ring lying on the metal surface: This bridges two disconnected metal surfaces, i.e., it connects a thin metal cylinder to a flat metal surface with a hole. Full-wave numerical simulations demonstrate that an electromagnetic field propagating inside these metamaterials does not disturb the propagation of SPPs at the metal surface. A multilayered design of these devices is proposed, based on effective medium theory for a set of reduced parameters: The former plasmonic analog of the electromagnetic wormhole requires homogeneous isotropic magnetic layers, while the latter merely requires dielectric layers.
