    (a) Schematic diagram of the chiral plasmonic lens. (b) Structural parameters (up) and single unit cell with two slits (down). (c) FDTD simulated result of SPP field in the xy plane excited by the chiral plasmonic lens. Two layers of the structure are used to enhance the SPP field. (d) FDTD simulated result of the SPP field excited by a single semicircular slit with 100 nm width and radius R = 4 µm. (e), (f) The analytical model results corresponding to (c), (d). In (c)–(f), the order of CVB is m = 3, and the incident angle θ = 0°.
