This study proposes, designs, and simulates a unique plasmonic Y-shaped MIM waveguide based 2 x 1 multiplexer (MUX) structure utilizing opti-FDTD software. Two plasmonic Y-shaped waveguides are positioned facing one another inside a minimum wafer size of 6 μm x 3.5 μm in the 2 x 1 MUX configurations that is being described. The design parameters are adjusted until the plasmonic multiplexer performs as required under optimal conditions. Extinction ratio and insertion loss are two performance metrics calculated for performance analysis of the design, indicating the potential to be applied in plasmonic integrated circuits.
