A nanoslit is capable of performing versatile functions in nanophotonic applications. In this invited paper, we discuss the physics and manipulation methods of surface plasmon excitation such as directional switching at a nanoslit. Furthermore, enhancing the light intensity passing through a nanoslit by employing embedded metallic nanoislands is experimentally presented and numerically analyzed.
