Coupled plasmon modes are studied in graded plasmonic waveguides, which are periodic chains of metallic nanoparticles embedded in a host with gradually varying refractive indices. The authors identify three types of localized modes called light, heavy, and light-heavy plasmonic gradons outside the passband, according to various localizations. The authors also demonstrate different transitions among extended and localized modes when the interparticle separation d is smaller than a critical d(c), whereas the three types of localized modes occur for d > d(c), with no extended modes. The transitions can be explained with phase diagrams constructed for the lossless metallic systems. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics.
