Abstract
We study the polarization conversion from horizontally polarized to vertically polarized light (or vice versa) that occurs when light is incident on a cross-corrugated metal surface. The conversion is due to the optical energy exchange between the surface plasmon (SP) resonances at the metal-dielectric interface of the surface. The angular and wavelength dependence of the SP-induced polarization conversion was studied for cases where two perpendicular surface relief diffraction gratings of different pitch are used to couple the light into and out of the plasmon resonance modes. The polarization conversion occurs only when a plasmon mode is exited by one of the gratings and then the energy in this mode is out-coupled by the second grating. For various grating combinations this occurs at specific wavelength and incidence angles, otherwise no signal is obtained in a crossed polarizer set-up. An enhancement of the signal (and therefore of the surface field) is also observed when a standing wave surface plasmon is generated when one of the gratings produces counter propagating surface plasmons. A theoretical model based on graphical representations in momentum space of the travelling light beam through the specimen was developed and successfully applied to explain the experimental results.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
