Figure 2

(Color online) Transformation of [(a) and (c)] SPP energy spectrum and [(b) and (d)] damping-factor dispersion with changing absorption parameter . The SPP frequency is normalized to the plasma frequency of silver. Solid green curves show propagating modes, whereas dashed curves show complex and evanescent modes.
