    "abstract": "The efficient generation of surface plasmons from free space optical waves is\nstill an open problem in the field. Here we present a methodology and optimized\ndesign for a grating coupler. The photo-excitation of surface plasmons at an\nAg-SiO2 interface is numerically demonstrated to yield greater than 50%\ncoupling from a Gaussian beam into surface plasmon voltages and currents.",
