Abstract
We experimentally show the excitation of surface plasmons by topologically protected diffraction from gratings with randomized periodicity. The structures are designed such that the plasmonic excitation is conditioned by the proper combination of the geometric and the dynamic phases. Accordingly, it is possible to obtain a precise interaction of the incident light signal and a specific plasmonic directional mode in a polarization dependent manner.
