Abstract
The generation and propagation of surface plasmonpolaritons in periodic metallic structures using femtosecond terahertz pulses is reported. The transmission and emission properties clearly show the influence of Wood’s anomalies. The velocity of propagation is determined experimentally and is in good agreement with a simple model.Keywords
