CW Defining scattering coefficients for CWs The SPP is a normal mode It takes almost one year to solve that problem. SPP elastic scattering coefficients like the SPP transmission may be easily defined. You may also define inelastic scattering coefficients with other modes like the radiated plane waves You may use mode orthogonality and reciprocity relationships. ?

Cross-conversion scattering coefficients Because the SPP mode and the CW have similar characteristics at the metal surface (nearly identical propagation constants, similar penetration depth in the metal …) The same causes produce the same effects.

Conclusion Two different microscopic waves, the SPP mode and the quasi-CW, are at the essence of the rich physics of metallic sub-l surfaces Their relative weights strongly vary with the metal permittivity They echange their energy through a cross-conversion process, whose efficiency scales as |em|-1 The local SPP elastic or inelastic scattering coefficients are essential to understand the optical properties, since they apply to both the SPP and the quasi-CW
