39. Since along the directions of maximum symmetry the surface plasmon is purely TM polarized, we choose to work with a TM-polarized incident field. On the other hand, the polarization is not preserved in all other directions on reflection, and so we plot the total reflectance as given by the sum of TE and TM intensities. If other procedures were adopted, the qualitative nature of the results would not change.
