In this experiment we measure the dispersion relationship of Surface Plasmon Waves. Upon the total reflection of TH polarized incident light from the glass and air interface in a prism, surface plasmon waves can be excited in a silver thin film locating right at the interface, and its wave vector can be determined by finding the minimum reflectivity point while the light incident angle is varied.
