Abstract

We demonstrate and analyze a highly efficient on-chip 3D metal-insulator-metal (MIM) nanofocusing structure. Here, we show the in-depth theoretical design, analysis and discussion to provide a detailed picture of the highly efficient, on-chip nanofocusing process which is linearly tapered in 3D.
