Surface plasmon polariton resonance (SPPR) can be originated from the surface charge oscillation via light localization at the interface of a metal, for example, Au or Ag and a dielectric. Such localization can be implemented to increase the magneto-optical (MO) activity of a magnetic medium while S...
