We developed a wideband transverse magnetic (TM) −reflected polarizer composed of BK7 prism and Ag/Cr/TiO2 film. Based on the polarization-dependent loss of coupled plasmon-waveguide resonance (CPWR), BK7 prism/Ag/Cr/TiO2/air layered structure can reflect the TM-components of lightwave and severely attenuate the transverse electric (TE) −components in a wavelength range from 600 nm to 900 nm at incident angles greater than the critical angle of total reflection. In terms of its practical application, a compact, low cost surface plasmon resonance (SPR) configuration with an integrated polarizer for wavelength modulation is presented and experimentally demonstrated.
