Following our recent experimental approach to excitation of surface plasmon polaritons induced by optical vortex beams [5], we report further analysis and verification of the surface plasmon interference pattern formed by locally excited standing surface plasmon polaritons in a metal/dielectric film. Our simulation model can be demonstrated by using angular spectrum representation. The generated standing interference pattern has potential as a resolution enhancement technique for sub-diffraction imaging.
