It sounds like you want to produce the following plot

enter image description here

Gnuplot has 2 x axes and 2 y axes names x1, x2, y1, and y2. When you just specify the x or y axis, you are actually working with the x1 and y1 axis. The other two are opposite. So to get the labels as you want, we just use the x2 and y2 labels

set x2lab "kx"
set y2lab "ky"

As far as the y-axis marks, gnuplot can put them on the border or on the axis (see help xtics, ytics are similar). Thus, to put the ytics on the axis itself, we just issue

set ytics axis
