Abstract
We investigate the transmission and directional properties of light emission from a nanoslit film flanked by periodic gratings, formed on a silver film, embedded in a high index dielectric medium. Using FDTD calculations it is demonstrated that the transmission has strong dependence on dimension of the dielectric film. The directional property of the emitted beam is controlled by tapering height of output grating elements and this effect is explained by standard theory of antenna array. We propose and examine the potential of such slit grating structure as a Plasmonic antenna in axial injection of light from single mode fiber to photonic crystal waveguide.
