Abstract

In plasmonic metamaterials, light is usually coupled to surface plasmon-like modes that allow modification of both linear optical properties and enhance the metamaterial's effective nonlinearities [1-3]. Recently plasmonic metamaterials based on nanorod arrays and split-ring resonators have indeed shown a strong and fast nonlinear behaviour [2,3]. These fast nonlinearities have been attributed to the fast relaxation time of the conduction electrons in metals.
