Propagation modes of symmetric metal-insulator-metal SPP waveguides are analyzed. Main characteristics of these waveguides such as mode effective index, propagation length, and penetration depths are calculated at the telecom wavelength for different layer thickness. We adopt Au, Al as a metal material and air, glass as a dielectric material and obtain different optical characteristics. The surface plasmon characteristics in this paper provide a numerical insight for designing nanostructure metal plasmon waveguide.
