摘要
The angular emission of light of wavelength 710 and 810 nm from a gold diffraction grating was studied at about 700 degrees C. A peak in the emission was found for defined angles. This contribution is purely TM-polarised and is attributed to thermally excited surface plasmons, coupled to Light waves by the diffraction grating. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V.
