Propagation and interaction of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) excited in the wavelength range 700-860 nm with periodic triangular arrays of gold bumps placed on gold film surfaces are investigated using a collection near-field microscope. We observe the inhibition of SPP propagation into the arrays within a certain wavelength range, i.e., the band gap (BG) effect. We demonstrate also the SPP propagation along a 30 degrees bent channel obtained by an adiabatic rotation of the periodic array of scatterers. Numerical simulations using the Lippmann-Schwinger integral equation method are presented and found in reasonable agreement with the experimental results.
