Perfect coupling of light to surface plasmons by coherent absorption

We show theoretically that coherent light can be completely absorbed and transferred to surface plasmons in a two- or three-dimensional metallic nanostructure by exciting it with the time-reversed mode of the corresponding surface plasmon laser (“spaser”). The narrow-band perfect absorption is a gen...
