我们开发了一种方法，利用各向异性超材料来解决现代等离子体的基本问题之一，表面波到自由空间模式的寄生散射，开辟了真正的二维等离子体光学的道路。我们说明了等离子体折射器和等离子体晶体的例子上开发的形式主义，并讨论了开发的技术的局限性和其可能的应用，传感和成像结构，高性能模式耦合器，光学隐身结构，和动态可重构的电等离子体电路。
We develop an approach to utilize anisotropic metamaterials to solve one of the fundamental problems of modern plasmonics-parasitic scattering of surface waves into free-space modes, opening the road to truly two-dimensional plasmonic optics. We illustrate the developed formalism on the examples of plasmonic refractor and plasmonic crystal, and discuss limitations of the developed technique and its possible applications for sensing and imaging structures, high-performance mode couplers, optical cloaking structures, and dynamically reconfigurable electroplasmonic circuits.
