Abstract

Well-known coupled dipole approximation method is extended to multilayered media to obtain a more realistic model for plasmonic waveguides. The key component of the developed method is the layered medium Green's functions. Theoretically calculated resonance frequencies show a very good agreement with the experimental results found in the literature.
