Abstract:

Surface plasmons in 2-dimensional electron systems with narrow Bloch bands feature an interesting regime in which Landau damping (dissipation via electron–hole pair excitation) is completely quenched. This surprising behavior is made possible by strong coupling in narrow-band systems characterized by large values of the “fine structure” constant α=e2/ℏκvF. Dissipation quenching occurs when dispersing plasmon modes rise above the particle–hole continuum, extending into the forbidden energy gap that is free from particle–hole excitations. The effect is predicted to be prominent in moiré graphene, where at magic twist-angle values, flat bands feature α≫1. The extinction of Landau damping enhances spatial optical coherence. Speckle-like interference, arising in the presence of disorder scattering, can serve as a telltale signature of undamped plasmons directly accessible in near-field imaging experiments.

Abstract:

Plasmon-induced photocatalysis on noble metal surfaces has attracted broad attention due to its application in sunlight energy conversion, while the selectivity of plasmonic platforms remains unclear. Herein, we present the controlled plasmon-mediated oxidation of para-aminothiophenol (p-ATP) by employing Au@Ag core–shell nanostars with tunable tip plasmons in visible–near-infrared range as reactors. In-situ Raman measurements indicate that Au@Ag core–shell nanostars essentially promote the conversion of p-ATP to 4,4′-dimercaptoazobenzene (DMAB) due to hot carriers excited by localized surface plasmon resonance. Au@Ag nanostars with plasmon modes under resonant light excitation suggested higher catalytic efficiency, as evidenced by the larger intensity ratios between 1440 cm−1 (N=N stretching of DMAB) and 1080 cm−1 shifts (C–S stretching of p-ATP). Importantly, the time-dependent surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectra showed that the conversion efficiency of p-ATP was mainly dictated by the resonance condition between the tip plasmon mode of Au@Ag core–shell nanostars and the excitation light, as well as the choice of excitation wavelength. These results show that plasmon bands of metal nanostructures play an important role in the efficiency of plasmon-driven photocatalysis.

Abstract:

We study the transmission of electromagnetic waves through layered structures of metallic and left-handed media. Resonant band structures of transmission coefficients are obtained as functions of the incidence angle, the geometric parameters, and the number of unit cells of the superlattices. The theory of finite periodic systems that we use is free of assumptions, the finiteness of the periodic system being an essential condition. We rederive the correct recurrence relation of the Chebyshev polynomials that carry the physical information of the coherent coupling of plasmon modes and interface plasmons and surface plasmons, responsible for the photonic bands and the resonant structure of the surface plasmon polaritons. Unlike the dispersion relations of infinite periodic systems, which at best predict the bandwidths, we show that the dispersion relation of this theory predicts not only the bands, but also the resonant plasmons’ frequencies, above and below the plasma frequency. We show that, besides the strong influence of the incidence angle and the characteristic low transmission of a single conductor slab for frequencies ω below the plasma frequency ω p , the coherent coupling of the bulk plasmon modes and the interface surface plasmon polaritons lead to oscillating transmission coefficients and, depending on the parity of the number of unit cells n of the superlattice, the transmission coefficient vanishes or amplifies as the conductor width increases. Similarly, the well-established transmission coefficient of a single left-handed slab, which exhibits optical antimatter effects, becomes highly resonant with superluminal effects in superlattices. We determine the space-time evolution of a wave packet through the λ / 4 photonic superlattice whose bandwidth becomes negligible, and the transmission coefficient becomes a sequence of isolated and equidistant peaks with negative phase times. We show that the space-time evolution of a Gaussian wave packet, with the centroid at any of these peaks, agrees with the theoretical predictions, and no violation of the causality principle occurs.

Abstract:

The influence of shape and dielectric property of surrounding media on surface plasmon absorption band of silver nanoparticles was studied. Spherical silver nanoparticles (d = 5.6 nm) synthesized in water using NaBH4 as a reducing agent are transferred in non-polar solvent (chloroform) with phase-transfer reagent oleylamine. The absorption spectrum of oleylamine-capped silver nanoparticles dispersed in chloroform shows a strong surface plasmon resonance band that is 19 nm red-shifted compared to unmodified particles in water. The values for peak position and corresponding half widths are compared with theoretical calculations based on Mie theory. Prismatic and plate-like silver nanoparticles were synthesized in water using trisodium citrate as a reducing agent and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as stabilizer. Due to structural anisotropy of prismatic and plate-like silver nanoparticles three surface plasmon resonance bands were observed in absorption spectrum. Nanocomposites consisting of non-spherical silver nanoparticles and polyvinyl alcohol exhibit different optical properties compared to water colloid. Instead of three surface plasmon bands, nanocomposite film has only one peak at 460 nm. Reason for appearance of single surface plasmon resonance band in nanocomposite film was discussed according to Maxwell-Garnet theory.

Abstract:

Abstract We have reported the in situ surface–enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) monitoring of repetitive surface plasmon–mediated chemical transformation cycles in a conjugate nanobiological system. The nanobiological conjugate comprised a gold-coated plasmonic substrate biofunctionalized with thiolated single–stranded DNA carrying a reduction-oxidation indicator methylthioninium chloride, which is also known as methylene blue (MB), in buffer solution at a neutral pH. Exposure to a 523-nm laser excitation produced pronounced SERS bands of oxidized MB. Continued exposure to the laser resulted in disappearance of the SERS bands, which can be interpreted as a reduction of MB. This occurred in the absence of electrochemical stimulation, chemical agents, or catalysts, suggesting a surface plasmon–mediated mechanism of the transformation. The oxidized form of MB was recovered by an addition of fresh buffer solution on the surface of the sample. Continued laser exposure with periodical addition of the buffer resulted in repetitive cycles of changes in the SERS pattern, which were monitored in situ. The chemical transformations of MB were preceded by a buildup of an intermediate SERS pattern, which was attributed to a transient form of MB created by selective surface plasmon-driven excitation.

Abstract:

Weak stimulated emission cross-section of rare earth ions (REIs) as dopants inside various glass hosts are disadvantageous for practical applications and needs improvement. We determine the mechanism of Titania (TiO2) nanoparticles (TNPs) mediated Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) assisted modification in the spectral properties of tellurite glass doped with Erbium (Er3+) ions. Transparent and thermally stable glass samples with varying TNPs contents are synthesized using melt-quenching technique. TEM images revealed the existence of TNPs with average size ranged from 16 to 26 nm. Glass containing 0.4 mol% of TNPs displayed an enhancement in the Raman signal by a factor of 2.25, 1.83, 1.98, 1.56 and 3.58 for the bands centered at 388, 495, 673, 758, and 845 cm-1, which is attributed to the SPR assisted effects. Absorption spectra of TNPs embedded glass (devoid of erbium ions) manifested two surface plasmon (SP) bands at 552 and 580 nm. Up-conversion (UC) PL spectra showed three prominent bands centered at 525, 545, and 660 nm due to the Er3+ ion transition from the excited states to the ground state. Furthermore, glass containing 0.4 mol% of TiNPs exhibited an intensity enhancement by a factor of 30, and 28.57 (green bands) and 19.60 (red band), which are ascribed to the generation of strong local electric field mediated by SPR effect of TNPs situated in the vicinity of Er3+ ion. The presence of TNPs surface plasmon is asserted to be responsible for the alteration of the Er3+ ions absorbance and modification of the UC emission intensity. A correlation between SPR and Surface Enhance Raman Scattering (SERS) is established.

Abstract:

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) provides a potential therapeutic approach for killing malignant cell/solid tumors, but currently approved photosensitizers (PSs) are generally excited by visible light, limiting the penetration depth in tissues. It is necessary to develop a near-infrared (NIR) responsive photodynamic platform, providing maximum tissue penetration. Here, we present a gold nanopeanut platform exhibiting dual functions of NIR PDT and two-photon luminescence imaging. The nanopeanut with a size less than 100 nm exhibits two distinct NIR surface plasmon absorption bands at approximately 1110 and 1300 nm. To perform PDT, we conjugated commercial toluidine blue O (TBO) PS on the surface of the nanopeanuts. With spectral overlap, the 1230-nm femtosecond Cr: forsterite laser can excite the surface plasmons of nanopeanuts, transfer energy to TBO, and generate singlet oxygen to kill cells. Moreover, the plasmon resonance-enhanced two-photon luminescence of nanopeanuts can be used to map their delivery in vivo. These results demonstrate that the PS-conjugated gold nanopeanut is an effective theranostic system for NIR PDT.

Abstract:

AbstractA dualband rejection filter and a triband rejection filter are proposed in this letter, both of which are implemented by cascading spoof surface plasmon polaritons (SSPPs) of the same structure but with diverse rejection bands. Compared with traditional ones, the proposed filters provide more compact structures, wider rejection bands, and better independent tunability. In the proposed filters, the rejection bandwidth, the center frequency of the rejection band and the filter's cutoff frequency can be adjusted independently. And the different rejection bands in the same filter also can be independently controlled. Agreements between the dispersion of SSPP units and the S21 of filters are also presented. Measurement results demonstrate that both filters load multiple rejection bands on the 27.7 GHz wide low-pass band and all the rejection bands locate in Ku and K bands. The average rejection bandwidth and the average rejection depth of the two filters are 1.49 GHz and 42.1 dB, respectively.

Abstract:

Optical properties of plasmon coupled silver and gold nanoparticles were studied as a function of the refractive index of the surrounding medium. Our studies confirmed that the effect of changes in the refractive index of the surrounding medium was more difficult to demonstrate from an experimental point of view, because of the very high susceptibility of nanoparticles to aggregate in aqueous and organic solvents. Whereas the position of the absorption bands of triiodide in these solvents shows a clear dependence on medium's refractive index, the surface plasmon band position of silver and gold nanoparticles do not exhibit the same dependence. This is attributed to a non-negligible interaction of these solvents with nanoparticle surfaces.

Abstract:

The silver nanoparticles were fabricated by the focused laser irradiation to silver rod immersed in various kinds of surfactant aqueous solutions. It was found that anionic and cationic surfactants showed different roles on the silver nanoparticle growth during the focused laser irradiation processes. Silver nanoparticle synthesis in an amphoteric surfactant aqueous solution was also carried out using the same techniques, and it was found that the spectral shifts for these surface plasmon bands showed complicated behaviors against the concentration of amphoteric surfactants as well as pH. Furthermore, the influence of the gas dissolved in a solution on the silver nanoparticle growth during the focused laser irradiation processes was investigated. With increasing the gas pressure of CO2, the surface plasmon bands of silver nanoparticles were shifted to longer wavelength, suggesting that the dissolved gas of CO2 in a solution enhances the silver nanoparticle growth. The plausible mechanism was proposed to understand the reason of such enhancement of silver nanoparticle growth by increasing the dissolved gas in a solution.

Abstract:

Different aspect ratio (length/width) gold nanorods were prepared in aqueous solution by seeding growth method. Aspect ratio of the nanorods was controlled accurately by changing the silver ions concentration. Ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) spectra demonstrate the regularation that longitudinal plasmon resonance absorption wavelength of gold nanorods reveal red shift with the increase of aspect ratio. Gold nanorods were wrapped with Ag shells by chemical reduction silver ions on its surface. Different from gold nanorods, the transverse modes of the Au@Ag core-shell nanorods have two bands which contributed from the Ag and Au, respectively. On the other hand, centers of longitudinal surface plasmon of the core-shell nanorods exhibit blue shift with the Ag shell thickness increasing.

Abstract:

This paper presents a novel single-layer dual band-rejection-filter based on Spoof Surface Plasmon Polaritons (SSPPs). The filter consists of an SSPP-based transmission line, as well as six coupled circular ring resonators (CCRRs) etched among ground planes of the center corrugated strip. These resonators are excited by electric-field of the SSPP structure. The added ground on both sides of the strip yields tighter electromagnetic fields and improves the filter performance at lower frequencies. By removing flaring ground in comparison to prevalent SSPP-based constructions, the total size of the filter is significantly decreased, and mode conversion efficiency at the transition from co-planar waveguide (CPW) to the SSPP line is increased. The proposed filter possesses tunable rejection bandwidth, wide stop bands, and a variety of different parameters to adjust the forbidden bands and the filter’s cut-off frequency. To demonstrate the filter tunability, the effect of different elements like number (n), width (WR), radius (RR) of CCRRs, and their distance to the SSPP line (yR) are surveyed. Two forbidden bands, located in the X and K bands, are 8.6–11.2 GHz and 20–21.8 GHz. As the proof-of-concept, the proposed filter was fabricated, and a good agreement between the simulation and experiment results was achieved.

Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) peak wavelength of nanostructures metallic materials, such as gold and silver, is very sensitive to the dielectric environment of the materials; hence widely used as sensors to detect various types of chemicals. In this study, high - yield gold nanoplates ca. 63% have been grown on the quartz substrate using the seed - mediated growth method. The grown gold nanoplates exhibit variety of shapes such as triangular, hexagonal, truncated hexagonal and flat rod. The LSPR spectrum of Au nanoplates sample has two absorption bands; centring at 543 nm and 710 nm, which are associated with transverse SPR (t-SPR) and longitudinal SPR (l-SPR) respectively. The intensities and peaks position of these two bands were found to linearly change with the concentration of boric acid solutions.

Abstract:

A Photonic Crystal Fiber based on Surface Plasmon Resonance (PCF-SPR) temperature sensor with liquid core is proposed in this paper. Glycerin liquid with a high refractive index is filled in the central air hole of the hollow core photonic bandgap (PBG) PCF, the transmission type of PCF will change to total internal reflection (TIR), which will significantly broaden its transmission bands. The refractive index of glycerin changes with temperature within a certain temperature range and can be detected by measuring the transmission spectra, thus the accurate ambient temperature can be obtained. Numerical results indicate that the plasmon on the surface of the gold-coated channels containing glycerin liquid can be intensively excited by the core-guided mode and the excitation of the plasmon mode is sensitive to the change of the temperature. Resolution of the PCF-SPR temperature sensor with liquid core is demonstrated to be as low as 4 × 10-6 RIU, where RIU means refractive index unit.

Abstract:

Abstract Due to their promising properties, surface magneto plasmons have attracted great interests in the field of plasmonics recently. Apart from flexible modulation of the plasmonic properties by an external magnetic field, surface magneto plasmons also promise nonreciprocal effect and multi-bands of propagation, which can be applied into the design of integrated plasmonic devices for biosensing and telecommunication applications. In the visible frequencies, because it demands extremely strong magnetic fields for the manipulation of metallic plasmonic materials, nano-devices consisting of metals and magnetic materials based on surface magneto plasmon are difficult to be realized due to the challenges in device fabrication and high losses. In the infrared frequencies, highly-doped semiconductors can replace metals, owning to the lower incident wave frequencies and lower plasma frequencies. The required magnetic field is also low, which makes the tunable devices based on surface magneto plasmons more practically to be realized. Furthermore, a promising 2D material-graphene shows great potential in infrared magnetic plasmonics. In this paper, we review the magneto plasmonics in the infrared frequencies with a focus on device designs and applications. We investigate surface magneto plasmons propagating in different structures, including plane surface structures and slot waveguides. Based on the fundamental investigation and theoretical studies, we illustrate various magneto plasmonic micro/nano devices in the infrared, such as tunable waveguides, filters, and beam-splitters. Novel plasmonic devices such as one-way waveguides and broad-band waveguides are also introduced.

Abstract:

In order to detect the refractive index (RI) of high refractive index materials such as trichlorobenzene and aniline in the near-infrared and mid-infrared spectra and expand the detection range of the refractive index, a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) photonic crystal fiber (PCF) sensor based on an elliptical sensing channel is proposed for high refractive index detection. The fiber core and the analyte channel are surrounded by two types of air holes with different sizes. When the surface plasmon resonance effect appears at the interface between the fiber core and the elliptical sensing layer, obvious resonance peaks appear in the near-infrared and mid-infrared bands. The full vector finite element method (FEM) is used to study the sensing characteristics of the sensor and the influence of structural parameters on the resonance peak. The results demonstrate that the sensor achieves detection in the refractive index range of 1.41–1.58, in the wavelength range of 1600–3200 nm. The average wavelength sensitivity is 9217.22 nm/RIU, and the refractive index resolution is 10.85 × 10−6 RIU. The proposed sensor realizes high refractive index detection in the near-infrared and mid-infrared bands, and obtains an ultra-wide detection range and higher sensitivity. The sensor has broad application prospects in chemical detection, biomedical sensing and other fields, and provides a theoretical reference for the design of a photonic crystal fiber surface plasmon resonance sensor.

Abstract:

Abstract Light-weight shared-aperture antennas require the integration of multiple functions in separate frequency bands within the same physical aperture, having great potential use in remote sensing, radiometers, telemetry and communication, etc. In this letter, a method for designing light-weight shared-aperture antennas based on engineering of spoof surface plasmon polaritons (SSPPs) is presented. The proposed antenna consists of a feeding patch and a SSPP structure. Even and odd modes can be excited in different bands to realize different radiation performances. The simulated and measured results both corroborate that the presented shared-aperture antenna can achieveomnidirectional radiation at around 3.1 GHz and end-fire radiation at around 10.65 GHz, with peak gains about 1.90 dB and 6.24 dB, respectively. Without using several radiators and complex feeding networks, the antenna can work in two bands with different radiation patterns. This work provides an effective alternative design for shared-aperture antennas in light-weight and multi-functional wireless communication systems.

Abstract:

In this paper, group velocity and frequency wave can be tuned with an applied external magnetic field when we increase the magnetic field from 0-4 tesla the frequency range can be reduced for given semiconductor materials. The excitation of the two layers of semiconducting material propagating band structures can be explained by the oscillations of electrons in semiconductors on applying the magnetic field, we study the effects of an external magnetic field in the band structure of C-insulator-GaAs materials in presence of surface magneto plasmons concerning plasma frequency below and above the surface band structures. The surface magneto plasmon bands get excited and show the dispersion relation with frequency range. The higher dispersion band moves in faster than the lower dispersion band structure of semiconducting material. The most energy is stored in a lower surface of magneto plasmon. When we increase the magnetic field, the surface of the semiconductor moves opposite to the lower surface of the semiconductor material. Here, we use semiconducting materials instead of metals because metal cannot support a wide frequency range on the magneto-plasmonic surface providing a good tunning property and more flexibility in this mechanism, which is widely useful in telecommunications, magneto-plasmonic devices, and data processing unit. This study is widely more promising due to its wavelength confinements of electromagnetic fields on semiconducting and insulating layers. Due to nonreciprocal effects, the dispersion of frequency waves varies with different band structures and group velocity also varies with two propagating directions among semiconductor-insulator-semiconductor layers.

In recent years, graphene-coated nanowires (GCNWs) have attracted considerable research interest due to the unprecedented optical properties of graphene in terahertz (THz) and mid-infrared bands. Graphene plasmons in GCNWs have become an attractive platform for nanoscale applications in subwavelength waveguides, polarizers, modulators, nonlinear devices, etc. Here, we provide a comprehensive overview of the surface conductivity of graphene, GCNW-based plasmon waveguides, and applications of GCNWs in optical devices, nonlinear optics, and other intriguing fields. In terms of nonlinear optical properties, the focus is on saturable absorption. We also discuss some limitations of the GCNWs. It is believed that the research of GCNWs in the field of nanophotonics will continue to deepen, thus laying a solid foundation for its practical application.

Abstract:

A study of the surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) spectroscopy of para-nitrobenzoic acid (PNBA) adsorbed on thermally evaporated silver films has been conducted to determine the effect of film architecture on the magnitude of the SEIRA enhancement. Ordered arrays of uniformly sized silver nanoparticles, termed periodic particle arrays (PPAs), were prepared on several different infrared transparent substrates (germanium, silicon, and mica) by nanosphere lithography (NSL). It was found that the ordered arrays deposited by NSL produced well-defined and intense surface plasmon resonance (SPR) bands in the infrared at frequencies between 1500 and 4000 cm−1. The peak frequency of these infrared SPR bands depended on the array architecture and the substrate material. By appropriate design of the nanoparticle array, the infrared SPR band can be made to be coincident with the SEIRA sensitive infrared bands of the PNBA. The trends in the infrared SPR peak frequencies and band shapes were consistent with predictions from electrodynamic theory. The SEIRA responses per unit area of deposited metal obtained with the PPA-type films were at best comparable to results obtained with disordered silver and gold films deposited on the same substrate materials by thermal evaporation (i.e., in the absence of any NSL masking spheres). The results of this study are most consistent with theories and models that attribute SEIRA to the dielectric constant and optical extinction spectrum of the metal film.

Abstract:

AbstractSingular graphene metasurfaces, conductivity gratings realized by periodically suppressing the local doping level of a graphene sheet, were recently proposed to efficiently harvest THz light and couple it to surface plasmons over broad absorption bands, thereby achieving remarkably high field enhancement. However, the large momentum wavevectors thus attained are sensitive to the nonlocal behavior of the underlying electron liquid. Here, we extend the theory of singular graphene metasurfaces to account for the full nonlocal optical response of graphene and discuss the resulting impact on the plasmon resonance spectrum. Finally, we propose a simple local-analogue model that is able to reproduce the effect of nonlocality in local-response calculations by introducing a constant conductivity offset, which could prove a valuable tool in the modeling of more complex experimental graphene-based platforms.

Abstract:

A high absorption broadband absorber based on MXene and tungsten nanospheres in visible and near-infrared bands is proposed. The absorber has a maximum absorption of 100% and an average absorption of 95% in the wavelength range of 400–2500 nm. The theoretical mechanism and parameter adjustability of the absorber are analyzed by FDTD solutions. The results show that the structural parameters can effectively adjust the absorption performance. The good absorption performance is due to the action of the local surface plasmon resonance coupling with the gap surface plasmon resonance and Fabry–Perot resonance. The simulation results show that the absorber is insensitive to the polarization and oblique incidence angle of incident light, and that high absorption and broadband can be maintained when the oblique incidence angle is up to 60°.

Abstract:

Gold nanoparticles (AuNP) incorporated into hydrotalcite (HT), provide an interesting type of pigment in which temperature can modulate the plasmon resonance and the aggregation phenomenon. As inferred from microscopy techniques, the preferential binding sites are located at the border of the HT external basal surface, leading to aggregates of gold nanoparticles displaying characteristic plasmon resonance and interference bands around 520 and 700 nm, respectively. The thermally induced color changes in the HT-supported gold material arise from the competition between of nanoparticles aggregation and fusion processes, as characterized by TEM and STM. A laser beam can also induce such changes, allowing the writing of optical information on this type of material.

Abstract:

A dual narrowband absorber operating at mid-infrared (mid-IR) frequencies was numerically investigated. The structure consists of a fine-structured silicon grating on a gold film. Each unit cell of the fine-structured silicon grating is composed of two different silicon bars. When illuminated by a transverse-magnetic (TM) polarized plane wave, the absorber will create two absorption bands. At normal incidence, the two absorption bands have respective peak wavelengths of ∼3.864 µm and ∼3.994 µm, and respective bandwidths of ∼28 nm and ∼36 nm. The level of absorption can be higher than 0.998. It is shown that the two absorption bands are related to different silicon bars in each unit cell. Moreover, the physical origin of the two absorption bands is attributed to the different surface-plasmon-polariton (SPP) modes excited in the absorber.

Abstract:

Samarium-doped tellurite glass embedded with silver nanoparticles are synthesized by melt quenching technique and optically characterized. The effect of silver nanoparticles on the luminescent properties of the samarium-doped sodium tellurite glass is investigated. Upon pumping with 406 nm radiation, it is found that there are four distinctive emission bands centered at 562 nm, 599 nm, 645 nm and 705 nm. In the presence of silver nanoparticles in the glass substrates, we observe significant enhancement in the intensity of these emission bands. The enhancement tends to increase with the increasing of silver nanoparticles concentration. The mechanism of luminescence enhancement is discussed in terms of localized surface plasmon resonance.

Abstract:

When surface plasmon resonance (SPR) occurs, the incident light is absorbed by the surface of the SPR structure, thus minimizing the intensity of the reflected light. Therefore, the SPR method is adopted in this paper to achieve perfect absorption of the absorbent. In this paper, we first propose a multi-frequency broadband absorber structure based on graphene SPR, which uses the continuous resonance of patterned graphene surface plasmon in the frequency spectrum to form a multi-frequency broadband absorption. In this simulation, a sandwich-stack structure was adopted, whereby the patterned graphene is situated on top of the SiO2 layer and the metal layer. The broad-band absorption bands of the absorber were obtained as 4.14–4.38 THz, 5.78–6.36 THz, and 7.87–8.66 THz through the analog simulation of finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD) solutions. Then, based on the multi-layer resonant unit structure, through the superposition and combination of absorbing units responding to different frequency bands, the perfect absorption of ultra-wideband is achieved. The data results illustrate that the total absorption bandwidth of the absorber is 2.26 THz, and the relative absorption bandwidth Bw is equal to 28.93%. The electric field in X-Y direction of the absorber in the perfect absorption band is analyzed, respectively, and the dynamic tunability of the absorber is studied. Finally, we studied whether the absorbing structure still has efficient absorption characteristics for the two polarization modes when the incident angle is changed from 0° to 70°. The structure model proposed has potential value for application in terahertz photoelectric detection, filtering, and electromagnetic shielding.

Abstract:

We analyze the effective opening of finite bands of inhibited transmission in realistic systems excited by actual out-of-plane sources. We first observe how the excitation of surface plasmon polaritons in one-dimensional arrays of metal slits depends on the angle of incidence of the source field. Then, the well-known grating-coupling equation is revised in order to find an asymmetric structure with equivalent parameters which, under perfectly normal excitation, is able to exhibit surface plasmon polariton modes at the same wavelengths of the original structure which undergoes a nonorthogonal incidence of the light. In this way we demonstrate through finite-element simulations that a realistic system, probed by a source beam in a finite light-cone, can be effectively decomposed in several equivalent systems with different physical and geometrical parameters, with results in the enlargement of the theoretically expected punctual minimum of transmission.

Abstract:

This paper presents the design and analysis of a diplexer for satellite communication system based on hybrid spoof surface plasmon polariton (SSPP) and substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) transmission lines. The proposed diplexer consists of a SSPP printed line composed of H-shaped periodical grooved strips to operate as a low pass filter and a SIW to operate as a high pass filter. The operating frequency bands of the proposed diplexer are from 11.7 to 12.75 GHz for the downlink (DL) band, and from 17.3 to 18.35 GHz for the uplink (UL) band. These frequency bands correspond to the operating frequencies in Nile Sat 201 system. The frequencies of the DL and UL bands are adjusted independently by tuning the structure parameters of SSPP and SIW sections, respectively. The proposed hybrid SSPP-SIW diplexer is fabricated and measured. Simulated and measured results show good channel isolation, low return loss and low insertion loss in the required frequency bands.

Full text

Abstract:

We present an analytical model describing the transition to a strong coupling regime for an ensemble of emitters resonantly coupled to a localized surface plasmon in a metal–dielectric structure. The response of a hybrid system to an external field is determined by two distinct mechanisms involving collective states of emitters interacting with the plasmon mode. The first mechanism is the near-field coupling between the bright collective state and the plasmon mode, which underpins the energy exchange between the system components and gives rise to exciton-induced transparency minimum in scattering spectra in the weak coupling regime and to emergence of polaritonic bands as the system transitions to the strong coupling regime. The second mechanism is the Fano interference between the plasmon dipole moment and the plasmon-induced dipole moment of the bright collective state as the hybrid system interacts with the radiation field. The latter mechanism is greatly facilitated by plasmon-induced coherence in a system with the characteristic size below the diffraction limit as the individual emitters comprising the collective state are driven by the same alternating plasmon near field and, therefore, all oscillate in phase. This cooperative effect leads to scaling of the Fano asymmetry parameter and of the Fano function amplitude with the ensemble size, and therefore, it strongly affects the shape of scattering spectra for large ensembles. Specifically, with increasing emitter numbers, the Fano interference leads to a spectral weight shift toward the lower energy polaritonic band.

Abstract:

AbstractOne-dimensional metallic nanostructures such as nanorods and nanowires are of tremendous interest for electronic, sensing, and catalytic applications. Shape anisotropy introduces new optical properties in gold and silver nanoparticles, such as longitudinal plasmon resonance bands in the visible and near-IR portion of the spectrum. Different approaches employed for the shape-controlled synthesis of silver and gold nanocrystals include chemical, electrochemical, and physical methods. The chemical route for the synthesis of nanorods and nanowires, in which metal salts are reduced in an aqueous solution, is one of the most widely used methods. This route commonly employs a surfactant as the directing agent to introduce asymmetry in the nanocrystal shape. Variation in the concentration of precursor salt and the surfactant, the nature of the surfactant, the nature and concentration of reducing agents, the presence of external salts, and the pH of the reaction solution all affect nanocrystal shape, dimension, and yield. The size and shape of the nanocrystals affect the position of the plasmon bands, which in turn has been widely used in surface-enhanced spectroscopies that include both Raman and fluorescence. The aqueous, surfactant-directed route also promises the synthesis of more complex nanostructures with additional desirable properties.

Abstract We proposed and simulated a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) temperature sensor with two loss peaks in a hollow core negative curvature fiber (HC-NCF). Inner walls of the anti-resonant tubes in HC-NCF were plated with gold films to stimulate SPR, while the thermo-optic mixture of toluene and chloroform was filled in the air holes in HC-NCF to modulate the coupling between core modes and surface plasmon polaron modes (SPPMs). Simulation results showed that two SPPMs with opposite thermo-optic respond effects were excited at two separate wavelength bands due to their different dispersion characteristics. Temperature measurement sensitivities of −3.976 nm °C−1 and 1.071 nm °C−1 were obtained for the two SPPMs, while the sensitivity reached −5.047 nm °C−1 when detected the wavelength interval between the two SPPMs loss peaks. The two separate loss peaks could also be utilized in self-verification. The designed temperature sensor based on HC-NCF and SPR depicts high sensitivity and self-verification, which could be utilized for high precision and stable temperature monitoring.

Conventional UV-visible spectrophotometric and transmission electron microscopic technique were used to determine the morphology of silver nanoplates (AgNP) using Alstonia scholaris aqueous leaves extract for the first time. The visible spectra showed the presence of three well defined surface plasmon absorption (SRP) bands at 500, 550 and 675 nm which attributed to the anisotropic growth of Ag-nanoplates. Transmission electron microscopic (TEM) analysis of AgNP showed formation of truncated triangular, polyhedral with some irregular shapes nanoplates in the size range 7-20 nm. Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) has no significant effect on the shape of the spectra, position of SRP bands, size and the size distribution of AgNP.

Abstract:

Metal/semiconductor (Au/CdS) nanocomposites were synthesized in the solution of branched D-g-PAA polymer. TEM and DLS of Au/CdS/D-g-PAA nanocomposites revealed complicated nanocomposite structure consisting of the Au nanoparticles (NPs) of 6 nm in size surrounded by small CdS NPs with size of 3 nm. These nanocomposites formed the aggregates-clusters with average size of 50–800 nm. Absorption spectra of Au/CdS nanocomposites consist of the bands of excitons in CdS NPs and surface plasmons in Au ones. The surface plasmon band of gold NPs is red shifted and broadened in Au/CdS/D-g-PAA nanocomposites comparing to the one of Au NPs in Au/D-g-PAA proving the fact of close location of CdS and Au NPs in the synthesized Au/CdS/D-g-PAA nanocomposites. The PL spectra of Au/CdS nanocomposites originate from the radiative transitions in excitons in CdS NPs. The 4-fold increase of intensity of free exciton PL is observed for CdS NPs in Au/CdS/D-g-PAA comparing to CdS ones in CdS/D-g-PAA that is due to PL enhancement by local field of surface plasmons of Au NPs. Also, the 12-fold decrease of intensity of localized exciton PL is observed for CdS NPs in Au/CdS/D-g-PAA comparing to CdS ones in CdS/D-g-PAA. Most probably, it is due to passivation of the surface of CdS NPs carried out by the Au ones.
