Abstract
Photon tunneling gated by light at a different wavelength in an artificially created array of nanometer scale cylindrical channels in a thick gold film is described. This observation suggests the possibility of building a new class of "gated" photon tunneling devices for massive parallel all-optical signal and image processing.
