摘要

A method for generating and controlling dynamic surface plasmon patterns by highly focused "cogwheel-shaped" beams is studied theoretically and experimentally. The "cogwheel" beams are formed by collinear superposition of two Laguerre-Gaussian beams with equal but opposite topological charges. It is shown that the patterned surface plasmons can be reconfigured locally with advantages over patterned metallic islands.
