An all-optical plasmonic limiter based on a nonlinear slow light waveguide is proposed and numerically investigated for the first time. The results reveal that the slowdown factor can be tuned by the intensities of incident surface plasmon waves. In addition, the nonlinear slow light waveguide can b...
