Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) take place at the interface between the metal and the insulator with boundaries at both ends. Physicists formulated the resonance frequency of the grating from the Fabry?P?rot interference between the grating thickness and the wavelength of SPPs in a short-range coupled mode. On the other hand, engineering researchers often use a lumped-element model assuming a resonant circuit consisting of an inductance of metal and a capacitance of metal-insulator-metal grating structure. Furthermore, they have considered that the resonant circuit excites a strong magnetic field independent of SPPs. This study compares each physical model and numerical simulation results, then clearly shows that all resonance frequencies and features of the circuit resonance can be described by the Fabry?P?rot interference of the SPPs in short-range coupled mode. Moreover, the estimated resonance frequencies obviously correspond to the local maxima of the transmittance of the nanograting with the various thicknesses and pitches. In this case, a strong magnetic field can be observed in the insulator layer as if it might be an isolated magnetic quantum. However, since materials show no magnetism at near-infrared frequencies, the magnetic response appears due to the contribution of SPPs. en-copyright= kn-copyright= en-aut-name=ISOBEKazuma en-aut-sei=ISOBE en-aut-mei=Kazuma kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=1 ORCID= en-aut-name=YAMADAYutaka en-aut-sei=YAMADA en-aut-mei=Yutaka kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=2 ORCID= en-aut-name=HORIBEAkihiko en-aut-sei=HORIBE en-aut-mei=Akihiko kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=3 ORCID= en-aut-name=HANAMURAKatsunori en-aut-sei=HANAMURA en-aut-mei=Katsunori kn-aut-name= kn-aut-sei= kn-aut-mei= aut-affil-num=4 ORCID= affil-num=1 en-affil=Department of Advanced Mechanics, Graduate School of Natural Science and Technology, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=2 en-affil=Department of Advanced Mechanics, Graduate School of Natural Science and Technology, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=3 en-affil=Department of Advanced Mechanics, Graduate School of Natural Science and Technology, Okayama University kn-affil= affil-num=4 en-affil=School of Engineering, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Tokyo Institute of Technology kn-affil= en-keyword=Surface plasmon polariton kn-keyword=Surface plasmon polariton en-keyword=Circuit resonance kn-keyword=Circuit resonance en-keyword=Magnetic polariton kn-keyword=Magnetic polariton en-keyword=Lumped-element model kn-keyword=Lumped-element model en-keyword=Fabry?P?rot interference kn-keyword=Fabry?P?rot interference END
