Controllable Excitation of Surface Plasmon Polaritons in Graphene‐Based Semiconductor Quantum Dot Waveguides

The research aim of this study is the development of a theoretical semiclassical model of the controllable excitation and propagation of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) in planar graphene waveguides by the application of external voltage. The model is based on the numerical solution of the SPP's dispersion equation formulated for a system including two coupled graphene sheets with embedded quantum dots. Using the developed model, the different...
