Dynamic tailoring of an optical skyrmion lattice in surface plasmon polaritons: comment
Tim Colin Meiler, Bettina Frank, Harald Gießen
Abstract
We comment on a recent paper entitled "Dynamic tailoring of an optical skyrmion lattice in surface plasmon polaritons" [Opt. Express28, 10322 (2020)10.1364/OE.384718] and disprove the assertion that Bloch-type skyrmions exist in the magnetic field of surface plasmon polaritons.
