Surface plasmon polaritons propagating in a high dielectric contrast system are investigated numerically. Using frequency domain simulations, we show that a three layer system consisting of air–silicon (7 nm)–silver supports two different modes at the Ag–Si interface: a fast mode, which exhibits normal dispersion, and a slow mode, which exhibits anomalous dispersion. Near the Ag–Si surface plasmon polariton resonance frequency, surface waves with a wavelength of 25 nm are observed at a vacuum wavelength of 595 nm, equivalent to 
f/24. The results show the possibility of exciting surface waves with extreme ultraviolet wavelengths using visible frequencies.

- The top edges of the slit were rounded off with a radius of curvature in the range of 25–75 nm and conformally coated with a 7 nm Si layer. A clear reduction of the slow plasmon amplitude relative to that of the fast mode was observed with increasing radius of curvature.
