Abstract
We present the theory of parametrically resonant surface plasmon polaritons. We show that a temporal modulation of the dielectric properties of the medium adjacent to a metallic surface can lead to efficient energy injection into the surface plasmon polariton modes supported at the interface. When the permittivity modulation is induced by a pump field exceeding a certain threshold intensity, such field undergoes a reverse saturable absorption process. We introduce a time-domain formalism to account for pump saturation and depletion effects. Finally, we discuss the viability of these effects for optical limiting applications. the abstract two lines below author names and addresses.
