We present experimental and theoretical studies of light manipulation on metal surfaces through nondiffracting surface waves–plasmonic Airy beams. First we show the ability to generate experimentally such beams on the surface of a gold metal film and prove their non‐diffracting nature, including their self‐healing properties. Then we show theoretically the efficient manipulation of such beams in linear plasmonic potentials formed in a wedged metal‐dielectric structure.
