    "abstract": "Experimental evidence of mode-selective evanescent power coupling at\ntelecommunication frequencies with efficiencies up to 75 % from a tapered\noptical fiber to a carefully designed metal nanoparticle plasmon waveguide is\npresented. The waveguide consists of a two-dimensional square lattice of\nlithographically defined Au nanoparticles on an optically thin silicon\nmembrane. The dispersion and attenuation properties of the waveguide are\nanalyzed using the fiber taper. The high efficiency of power transfer into\nthese waveguides solves the coupling problem between conventional optics and\nplasmonic devices and could lead to the development of highly efficient\nplasmonic sensors and optical switches.",
