SPPs are electromagnetic waves that exist on the surface of metals. The lateral dimension of surface plasmon optical waveguides is subwavelength scale. Not like the convensional optical waveguides and photonic crystal waveguides, the dimension of these waveguides are not limited by diffraction limit. They meet the need of the miniaturization and high-density integration of optical circuits and make it possible to integrate plasmonic, electronic, and conventional dielectric photonic devices on the same chip. In surface plasmon optical waveguides, the electric field focuses on the dielectric-metal interface with superior high energy density, which provides favorable conditions for using of nonlinear effects and possibility of constructing of subwavelength nonlinear devices. Mostimportantly, active nanophotonic elements based on nonlinear surface plasmon optics allowing control of light with light are imperative for implementation of all-optical integrated circuits. This article also analyzes output characteristics of directional couplers based-on surface plasmon optical waveguides using coupled-mode theory. It is found that two metal stripes can periodically exchange energy, while the periodical exchange of energy cannot be realized in the V-groove and the triangular wedge because the high concentration of energy; and complete energy transfer happe
