Texto completoLinear and nonlinear optical responses of lithographically fabricated plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) are investigated. Elastic scattering offers the fingerprints for localized surface plasmon resonances of NPs, which enhance nonlinear optical signals. Excitation polarization dependent far-field radiation of second-harmonic generation (SHG) shows a flipping effect, which is analysed from the aspects of resonant excitation shifting and SH phase interference as size changes. The radiations of metallic photoluminescence (MPL) in the weak and strong radiation field are studied sequentially. In the weak excitation, besides a process via electron-hole (e-h) pair recombination, particle plasmons (PPs) can be excited via Auger scattering of photo-excited d-band holes and the radiative decay of which gives rise to PPs modulated MPL. A model of total emission quantum efficiency involving both contributions has been used to explain MPL radiation difference between the bulk and the NPs. In the strong excitation, avalanche multiphoton PL (AMPL) is observed from the coupled heterodimers, which is interpreted as the recombination of avalanche ionized hot carriers seeded by multiphoton ionization (MI). MI is greatly assisted by local field of coupled NPs at the excitation stage. The giant photon emission can be evaluated as a function of local field environment and thermal factor of hot carriers. The spectral change from PPs modulated profile to the one indicates spontaneous emission of hot e-h pairs is explained by the diminishment of d-band hole scattering rate as temperature increases

Texto completoIn this work, we study the coupling between plasmonic nanoantennas and semiconducting nanowire quantum dots (NWQDs). This coupling requires spectral, spatial and polarisation matching of the antenna mode and of the NWQD emission. Hence, a full characterisation of both the antenna system and the NWQDs has to be performed to determine a relevant coupling geometry.Using cathodoluminescence (CL) we investigate the relation between the CL signal of circular patch plasmonic antennas and the electromagnetic local density of states (LDOS). The successive resonances supported by these antennas are complex superimpositions of Bessel modes of different radial and azimuthal order. Applying an analytical LDOS model, we show that we can fabricate and characterise antennas down to single mode resonances. However, the antennas CL spectrum goes beyond the radiative part of the LDOS. By changing the spacing layer thickness and the antennas materials, we propose an explanation for the origin of the additional CL signal we observe that is not related to the radiative LDOS of the patch antennas. We also demonstrate the fabrication of Al patch antennas working in the blue spectral range and apply our method to other geometries.We perform optical characterisation of different quantum dots (QDs) embedded inside semiconducting nanowires (NWs) made of II-VI materials. We use microphotoluminescence (µPL) to study the emission of single NWQDs. Time-resolved measurements and Fourier imaging allows us to extract their exciton lifetime and radiation patterns. The variability in the emission properties of the NWQDs due to inhomogeneity in the growth process are evidenced by studying a statistical set of nanowires. A complete model based on polarisation-resolved Fourier imaging and magneto-optical spectroscopy is detailed, allowing to fully determine the QD electronic and optical properties for an individual system.Finally, we develop a cathodoluminescence-based two-step electron-beam lithography technique to deterministically fabricate plasmonic antennas coupled to NWQDs, enhancing their µPL properties. The coupling results in an enhanced absorption of the pump laser inside the NW and in an increase of the radiative rate of the QD, leading to up to a two-fold intensity enhancement factor for the coupled system

Texto completoRastogi, Rishabh. "Engineered Electromagnetic Hot-spots for Highly Sensitive (Bio)molecular Detection by Plasmonic Specytroscopies". Thesis, Troyes, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020TROY0018.
Texto completoNanoplasmonic sensing relies on enhanced electromagnetic fields at the vicinity of nanostructured metal surface to detect molecules at ultra-low concentrations. The EM enhancements are strongly pronounced at junctions between adjacent nanostructures resulting in gap hot-spots. EM enhancements at these hot-spots increase non-linearly as a function of gap distances down to sub-10 regime. Analyte present at these gaps can leverage these EM enhancements, resulting in ultra-high sensitivity in detection. However, such confining gaps affect the ability of large analytes such as biomolecules to enter and thereby leverage EM fields within the gaps. This presents spatial needs to enhance EM fields at odds with those for accommodating biomolecular interactions. This thesis demonstrates the rational design of array configurations that allows the EM hotspots to be better leveraged by the reporter of biomolecular binding event. The thesis uses molecular self-assembly based approach to fabricate reproducible plasmonic nanoarrays on full wafers. Multiple parameters are considered including the dimension, shape, and density of hotspots, surface functionalization, and the choice of substrates, to demonstrate quantitative detection of molecules down to picomolar concentrations

Texto completoOptical antennas are structures able to convert, in both ways, electromagnetic energy between a light beam and a source (or absorber) placed in the structure. The use of sub-wavelength resonators enables one to realize this function in an efficient way, on relatively broad bandwidths, and to have a compact design. A good understanding of the optical properties of such resonators, taken individually, and of their couplings, is thus necessary in order to propose efficient optical antenna designs. In this manuscript, using a multipole decomposition of the fields and a T-matrix method, we obtain rigorous analytical solutions for spherical, homogeneous resonators, from which we deduce simplified, intuitive models that are still very close to the exact resolution of the Maxwell equations.Among other results, those models enabled us to propose a nanoantenna design that is at once compact, radiative and efficient, by using a hybrid metallo-dielectric structure. Some collaborations with experimental groups enabled us to validate, on the one hand, the optical characteristics of hybrid chromophores that are self-assembled using a DNA template (S. Bidault, Paris), and on the other hand, the possibility of using multiple combined electric and magnetic resonances (supported by dielectric spheres of moderate refractive index, n=2.45) in order to reflect, or more importantly collect, radiation coming from an electric dipole emitter placed nearby (the experiment was realized in the microwave regime by R. Abdeddaim and J-M. Geffrin)

Texto completorecentment ha rebut un interès creixent en microelectrònica però encara no ha despertat massa atenció dins la comunitat d'òptica. L'FEBID és el resultat de la descomposició local, per un feix
d'electrons focalitzat, de les molècules d'un precursor adsorbides sobre una superfície. Aquesta s'ha aplicat majoritàriament en la escriptura directa de contactes o per a la reparació de circuits, però amb l'ús de metalls nobles podria aprofitar-se per a l'òptica de plasmons.
En aquesta tesi es demostra l'ús de l'FEBID per a fabricar nanoestructures d'or per a aplicacions d'òptica de plasmons. S'investiguen els efectes del material del substrat i dels paràmetres de deposició, com ara el corrent del feix i la pressió de vapor d'aigua, sobre el ritme de creixement i la puresa de l'or. S'ha emprat un recuit ex situ de la mostra com a mètode de millora de la puresa. Les mesures òptiques de dispersió sobre les estructures purificades evidencien que suporten plasmons de superfície localitzats. Aquest mètode de fabricació permet el creixement d'estructures plasmòniques amb una elevada relació d'aspecte i ha de facilitar l'escriptura en superfícies no planes com l'extremitat d'una sonda de rastreig allargada.
La ingeniería de las propiedades plasmónicas de las nanoestructuras metálicas requiere un control preciso de sus formas y distribución. Esto normalmente se consigue con el uso de la litografía por haz de electrones sobre polímeros electro-sensibles combinado con la deposición de capas finas de metal y el lift-off. La deposición directa y localizada de metales inducida por un haz de electrones (FEBID por Focused Electron Beam Induced Deposition) es un método alternativo que recientemente ha despertado un interés creciente en microelectrónica pero todavía no ha recibido demasiada atención dentro de la comunidad de óptica. La FEBID es el resultado de la descomposición local, por un haz de electrones focalizado, de las moléculas de un precursor adsorbidas sobre una superficie. Esta se ha aplicado mayoritariamente en la escritura directa de contactos o para la reparación de circuitos, pero con el uso de metales nobles podría ser aprovechada para la óptica de plasmones.
En esta tesis se demuestra el uso de la FEBID para fabricar nanoestructuras de oro para aplicaciones de óptica de plasmones. Se investigan los efectos del material del sustrato y de los parámetros de deposición, como la corriente del haz y la presión de vapor de agua, sobre el ritmo de crecimiento y la pureza del oro. Se ha utilizado un recocido ex situ de la muestra
como método de mejora de la pureza. Las medidas ópticas de dispersión sobre las estructuras purificadas evidencian que soportan plasmones de superficie localizados. Este método de fabricación permite el crecimiento de estructuras plasmónicas con una elevada relación de aspecto y tiene que facilitar la escritura en superficies no planas como la extremidad de una sonda de rastreo alargada.
Engineering the plasmon properties of metal nanostructures requires an accurate control on their shapes and distribution. This is conventionally achieved by using electron-beam lithography on electro-sensitive polymers combined with thin-metal-film deposition and lift-off. Direct local deposition of metals induced by a focused electron beam (FEBID for Focused Electron
Beam Induced Deposition) is an alternative method that has been receiving a growing interest in microelectronics but it has not yet received much attention in the optical community. The FEBID is the result of the local decomposition, by a focused electron beam, of precursor molecules adsorbed on a surface. It has mostly been applied to direct-contact writing or to circuit reparation, but can be applied advantageously to plasmon optics when involving noble metals.
In this thesis the use of the FEBID to fabricate gold nanostructures for plasmon optics applications is demonstrated. The effects of the substrate material and the deposition parameters, such as beam current and water vapor pressure, on both the deposition rate and the gold purity are investigated. Ex-situ annealing of the sample is used as a purity improvement method. Scattering optical measurements on the purified structures evidence that they support localized surface plasmon resonances. This fabrication method enables to grow high aspect ratio plasmonic structures and to render much easier nano-patterning on non-flat surfaces such as the extremity of an elongated scanning probe.

Texto completoMetallic nanorods with lengths in the micrometer regime act as antennas for infrared light: As incident light excites a collective oscillation of the conduction electrons (a so-called plasmon), the electric field is concentrated at the rod ends. In case two antenna arms are separated by a small gap (dimer antenna), a particularly high field concentration occurs. Thereby the antennas are capable of enhancing light-matter-interaction -- for example the absorption of infrared light by molecules. This phenomenon, termed as surface enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA), is very useful to enhance absorption signals in infrared spectroscopy. This thesis attends to the efficient fabrication of metallic nanorods for SEIRA. The first topic in focus is the manipulation of dimer antennas fabricated by electron beam lithography (EBL), featuring a gap of resolution-limited size. By applying a photochemical reduction of metal salt complexes in solution, the dimer arms are subsequently enlarged. Thereby the gap size is reduced and reaches values clearly below the resolution limit of EBL. It is shown that the IR optical properties of dimer antennas dramatically change during photochemical metal deposition. This is due to plasmonic coupling. Additionally, the absorption of infrared light by molecules located in the gap increases with decreasing gap size. The second topic in focus is the cheap fabrication of a large number of IR antennas in a parallel process. Here, porous templates of anodized aluminum oxide (AAO) are used as a negative for the metal rods to be fabricated. Firstly, it is shown that the pores of the template can be filled by photochemical reduction of gold salt complexes. For a targeted adjustment of the rod lengths and the generation of a nanoscale gap, secondly, the electrochemical filling of acsu AAO is investigated. The IR antennas prepared by this method are extracted from the template, transferred to a substrate, and individually characterized in terms of their structure and IR optical properties. Advantages and drawbacks of the fabrication methods investigated in this work as well as their applicability to the fabrication of IR antennas for SEIRA are being discussed

Texto completoSince Einstein's and De Broglie's works in the early XXth century, the double nature of light being a set of particles as well as a wave is admitted in the scientific community. Today, both solar energy production and light detection are based on the photovoltaic effect which relies on the corpuscular description of light. To investigate a new way to produce electricity out of light, the concept of rectifying antenna is derived from the wave description. As an electromagnetic wave, light can be haversted by an antenna just like a radiowave. Although the first theoretical descriptions of this phenomena go back to the late sixties, it has just been a decade since a few experimental demonstrations of rectifying antennas designed for visible and infrared light have been published. This is explained by the recent progresses of the nanofabrication processes. This thesis aim to propose an innovative design of rectifiying nanoantennas able to address the two main challenges which are: the fabrication of reproducible nanoantennas at the nanoscale; and the rectification of the alternative current which arises when light is absorbed in the nanoantennas
Torres, Garcia Juan de. "Nanophotonic control of Förster resonance energy transfer". Thesis, Aix-Marseille, 2016. http://www.theses.fr/2016AIXM4354.
Texto completoThe technique of Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) determines the separation between two molecules at the nanometer scale, where molecular interactions can take place. The phenomenon requires a donor fluorophore transferring its energy in a non-radiative way, through a near-field dipole-dipole interaction, to an acceptor. Nanophotonics achieves accurate control over these interactions by modifying the local density of optical states (LDOS) of a single quantum emitter. We have clearly demonstrated enhanced energy transfer within single FRET pairs confined in single nanoapertures made of gold and also aluminum or in more complex structures like the antenna-in-box design. In particular, we have revealed the strong influence of the mutual dipole orientation on the FRET enhancement using nanostructures. Also, by means of silver nanowires, we have demonstrated a long-range plasmon-mediated fluorescence energy transfer between two nanoparticles separated by micrometer distance. Our results are clearing a new path to improve the energy transfer process widely used in life sciences and biotechnology. Optical nanostructures open up many potential applications for biosensors, light sources or photovoltaics

Texto completoThis thesis studies the interactions of light with particles of micrometric and nanometric size. The particles are optical components as part of a need for miniaturization of optical systems. Two major types of particles are distinguished in this manuscript. On the one hand, the micrometer-sized dielectric particles can focus light in a manner similar to conventional lenses. We have shown that when this particle is illuminated by a previously focused beam, destructive interferences significantly produce a small focal volume dimension in all directions in space. It is important to note that such performances had been achieved only by using complex structures like metal or photonic crystals. Metallic particles have also raised a great interest since they support plasmonic resonances in the optical domain. These resonances produce intense electromagnetic fields in the vicinity ofnanopartieles, smaller than the optical wavelength. Strong interactions between localized plasmons can also enable the control of the focal position at scales well below the optical wavelength incident. Given the scale of the nanometer focal volumes of these "nanolenses, it becomes possible to interact directly with a single emitter placed in the vicinity of the particle such as a fluorescent molecule or a quantum dot. The particle can increase and redirect the signal from the emitter located in its vicinity. The particle plays thus the role of "nanoantenna" for coupling propagative waves to localized states of matter and vice versa

Texto completoThe release of the rst report by Faraday in 1857 set the foundation of the production of metal nanoparticlesand their unexpected optical properties (coloring). More recently, controlling and guiding light via plasmonicresonance in nanostructures enable a lot of applications affecting everyday life that involves light. Plasmonresonance of metallic structures is a key phenomenon that allows unique optical properties through the interactionof light with the free electrons of the metal. The excitation of Localized Surface Plasmon Resonance(LSPR) leads to turn-on large local enhancements of electromagnetic energy as within antennas or to routelight as waveguide to desired region with high transmission through the excitation of Propagating SurfacePlasmon (PSP). During this thesis, we have developed an existing algorithm in order to calculate the opticalresponse of NPs of any shape. We have especially determined the localized energy enhancement factor interm of optical response of nano-antenna. This anisotropic (polarization dependent) NPs type can feature, atplasmon resonance, scattering efciency factor higher than 25. Moreover, an important systematic study hasbeen performed in order to optimize design of such NPs.Concerning the PSP that are involved in the enhanced transmission through Annular Aperture Arrays (AAAs),we systematically study the properties of the excitation of the peculiar Transverse ElectroMagnetic (TEM) guidedmode inside such nano-apertures. A complete numerical study is performed to correctly design the structurebefore it is experimentally characterized. For reasons associated to fabrication constraints and efciency,a slanted AAA made in perfectly conducting metal is proposed and studied. We numerically and analyticallydemonstrate some intrinsic properties of the structure showing a transmission coefcient of at least 50%ofan un-polarized incident beam independently of the illumination configuration (polarization, angle, and planeof incidence). At the TEM peak transmission, the laminar flow of the energy through the structure can exhibitgiant deviation over very small distances ( ). The results presented in this thesis could be considered as animportant contribution to the understanding of the enhanced transmission phenomenon based on the excitationof guided modes

Texto completoThe work of this thesis has been devoted to a few applications of antenna concepts for the manipulation of light. In the optical range, surface modes called surface plasmon polaritons take place in the vicinity of metallic antennas, enabling a strong light/matter interaction within highly confined volumes. In order to take advantage of this property, three applications of plasmonic antennas will be investigated. First, in the case of single-photon sources, both theoretical and experimental studies of single-emitters performance when coupled to a planar metallic antenna will be presented. A strategy to enhance its performance will be studied theoretically. Then, in the case of electrical generation of light by inelastic electron tunneling, we will analyse the modification of radiation properties close to a metallic nano-rod. This analysis paves the way towards the design of integrated, compact electrical sources of surface plasmons. Finally, in the case of detecting a weak quantity of molecules, the interaction between an infrared light beam and a sub-nanometric layer of resonant molecules deposited on a nanostructured metallic mirror will be studied

Texto completoThe object of this thesis is the coupling between luminescent nanocristals and metallic nanostructures. These structures show numerous interest in a large variety of applications thanks to the apparition of electromagnetic surface wave known as plasmons whose properties are tailored with the geometry of these structures. In this thesis, two types of geometry will be adressed : the long-range plasmons, and plasmonic nanoantennas. In a first time, the study focuses on a geometry in which two propagative surface plasmons are coupled through a thin metal film; creating a new type of plasmons with extended propagation lenghts. By coupling the emission of nanocristals in such a geometry, the energy repartition in the different desexcitation channels available has been adressed. The viccinity of the metal has also proved to increase the spontaneous decay rate up to 1.7. The non trivial contribution of conventional waveguide modes has also been demonstrated. In a second time, the potential of using metallic nanoparticles in a pillar geometry as nanoantennas to enhance and redirect the spontaneous emission has been investigated. The structure is composed of a metallic dimer creating a hotspot on top of which another metallic nanoparticles has been placed. FDTD simulations has shown that this kind of geometry can lead to few loss (<10%), a strong enhancement of the emission rate (>x80), a redirection of the emission and paves the way to wavelenght multiplexing possibilities. Besides, these structures present the advantage to be compatible with modern thin film elaboration techniques. Preliminary realisations have then been introduced

Texto completoSurface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) plays a central role in nanophotonics because they are optical modes that can be confined in space at the 10 nm scale and in time at the 10 fs scale. Electrical excitation of surface plasmon polaritons by inelastic tunneling electrons has the potential to be fast and localized so that it offers the opportunity to develop a nanosource for on-chip nanophotonics taking advantage of the full potential of surface plasmons polaritons. However, inelastic tunneling is rather inefficient with a typical electron-to-plasmon conversion efficiency of 10-7~10-5. In this thesis manuscript, we present a study for enhancing surface plasmon emission by inelastic tunneling electrons with a resonant nanoantenna. It consists of theoretical and experimental investigations. First, we have developed a theoretical model to describe the light emission from a tunnel junction based on the fluctuation-dissipation theorem. Second, we have theoretically demonstrated two strategies to improve the antenna SPP efficiency thus aiming to enhance electron-to-plasmon conversion efficiency. We introduce a resonant antenna mode with a sub-nanometer gap in order to enhance the coupling between the inelastic current and the the mode. Furthermore, we introduce the hybridization in a nanopatch antenna between a gap mode and an antenna mode to launch SPPs: we theoretically predict that 30% of the power emitted by a dipole is converted into SPP (working wavelength at 800nm) with a 1nm gap thickness. Third, we have developed the fabrication procedures to realize antenna tunnel junctions based on the Al/AlOx/Au configuration. The fabricated antenna junction shows a robust functionality both regarding electrical and optical properties. The antenna junction is demonstrated to control the SPP emission spectrum, the SPP emission polarization and enhance the SPP emission efficiency by over 3 orders of magnitude. The total SPP power emitted is in the range of 10 pW, four orders of magnitude larger than the typical fW power emitted by a scanning tunneling tip junction

Texto completoSilicon photonics has become the most important technology in integrated photonic chips production. Its great advantages, including its suitability for large-scale production and low-cost production, as a result of the possibility of using CMOS technology, are sufficient reason to justify its supremacy over other integration platforms. Despite the multiple devices already implemented in this technology, among which include WDM filters or electro-optical modulators, there is still room for improvement, especially in terms of reducing the devices footprint or the creation of new functionalities for the manipulation of light. Such improvements could be carried out by integrating components with sub-lambda dimensions arising in the field known as plasmonics. This discipline studies the interaction between light and metals, which is mediated by the existence of waves known as surface plasmons. One of the key properties of plasmons is their ability to confine light well beyond the diffraction limit, which is limiting in the case of silicon photonics. However, losses due to the absorption of metals at optical frequencies prevent their use for guiding light over long distances. Therefore, the benefits of unifying these two worlds becomes evident. By using silicon as the conductive material of the optical signal and the metal as an efficient light interconnector in subwavelength structures, new devices can be created for the manipulation of the properties of light at the nanoscale. This thesis is focused on the integration of structures with subwavelength dimensions in silicon waveguides and in their application to new functionalities of light manipulation in silicon chips. These nanostructures serve as transducers between guided light and free space radiation, so they can also be termed nanoantennas. To begin with, the guided modes properties in silicon waveguides are described for the correct excitation of the nanoantennas, followed by the demonstration of integration techniques of these nanostructures in these waveguides to increase their interaction efficiency with the guided light. In addition, the coherent control of the absorption and scattering of a metallic nanoantenna integrated in a silicon waveguide is demonstrated. Finally, from the asymmetric positioning of the nanostructure with respect to the waveguide, new polarization manipulation methods are proposed and demonstrated, such as the ability to synthesize desired states of polarization at the nanoscale. This will lead to the theoretical and experimental demonstration of a Stokes nanopolarimeter, based on photon-on-silicon technology, capable of determining the polarization state locally, optimally, and non-destructively, enabling its use for real-time polarization measurements in integrated circuits.
La fotònica sobre silici s'ha convertit en la tecnologia més important en la producció de xips integrats fotònics. Els seus grans avantatges, entre les quals destaquen la seva idoneïtat per a la fabricació a gran escala i el seu baix cost de producció, com a resultat de la possibilitat de l'ús tecnologia CMOS, són motiu suficient per justificar la seva supremacia sobre altres plataformes d'integració. Malgrat els múltiples dispositius ja implementats en aquesta tecnologia, entre els quals cal destacar filtres WDM o moduladors electro-òptics, encara hi ha espai per a la millora, sobretot quant a la reducció del foot-print dels dispositius o a la creació de noves funcionalitats per a la manipulació de la llum. Aquestes millores podrien portar-se a terme mitjançant la integració de components amb dimensions sub-lambda sorgits en el camp conegut com plasmònica. Aquesta disciplina estudia la interacció entre la llum i els metalls, que ve intervinguda per l'existència d'ones conegudes com plasmons de superfície. Una de les propietats clau dels plasmons és la seva capacitat per confinar la llum molt per sobre del límit de difracció, la qual cosa és limitant en el cas de la fotònica sobre silici. No obstant això, les pèrdues per absorció dels metalls a freqüències òptiques impedeixen el seu ús per al guiat de la llum en grans distàncies. Es fa evident, per tant, els beneficis d'unificar aquests dos mons. Usant el silici com a material conductor del senyal òptic i el metall com eficient interactor amb la llum en estructures sub-lambda, es poden crear nous dispositius per a la manipulació de les propietats de la llum en la nanoescala. Aquesta Tesi està centrada en la integració d'estructures amb dimensions sub-lambda en guies de silici i en la seva aplicació a noves funcionalitats de manipulació de la llum en xips de silici. Aquestes nanoestructures serveixen de transductors entre la llum guiada i la radiació en espai lliure, de manera que també poden ser denominades nanoantenes. Per començar, es descriuen les propietats de les maneres guiats en guies d'ona de silici per a la correcta excitació de les nanoantenes, seguit de la demostració de tècniques d'integració d'aquestes nanoestructures en les pròpies guies per augmentar la seva eficiència d'interacció amb la llum guiada. A més, es demostra el control coherent de l'absorció i el scattering d'una nanoantenna metàl·lica integrada en una guia de silici. Finalment, a partir del posicionament asimètric de la nanoestructura respecte a la guia, es proposen i demostren nous mètodes de manipulació de la polarització, com la capacitat per sintetitzar estats de polarització desitjats a escala nanomètrica. Això desembocarà en la demostració teòrica i experimental d'un nanopolarímetre de Stokes, basat en tecnologia fotònica sobre silici, capaç de determinar l'estat de polarització de manera local, òptima, i no destructiva, habilitant el seu ús per a mesures de polarització en temps real en circuits integrats.

Texto completoThe market for cooled infrared imaging technologies is growing fast due to a range of applications covering military, commercial and space. Current research for innovative systems focuses on high operating temperature and multispectral detectors.To achieve these aims, optical resonators can be used to concentrate electromagnetic fields in thin absorbing media. This thesis investigates the possibility of using plasmonic resonators for HgCdTe photodetection.Temporal coupled-mode theory is used to optimise analytically the absorption in a plasmonic resonator incorporating an absorbing semiconductor subject to the critical coupling condition. A design of a thin plasmonic HgCdTe diode is then described. This includes a hybrid plasmonic mode arising from the coupling between a surface plasmon and a cavity gap-plasmon mode

Puis, j'ai effectué une étude quantitative des propriétés de dépolarisation des pointes métalliques utilisées en a-SNOM et en TERS. Nos résultats montrent des facteurs de dépolarisation entre 5 et 30% qui varient en fonction de la polarisation de la lumière incidente et de la forme de la pointe. Les conséquences importantes de ce phénomène de dépolarisation ont été mises en évidence dans des expériences TERS sur du Silicium cristallin; On montre que la dépolarisation doit être prise en compte pour une estimation correcte de l'exaltation induite par la pointe.

Texto completoThis thesis is concerned with the theoretical description of nonlinear optical phenomena with regards to the (numerical) discontinuous Galerkin time-domain (DGTD) method. It deals with two different material models: the hydrodynamic model for metals and the model for Raman-active dielectrics. In the first part, we review the hydrodynamic model for metals, where we apply a perturbative approach to the model. We use this approach to calculate the second-order nonlinear optical effects of second-harmonic generation and sum-frequency generation using the DGTD method. In this context, we will see how to optimize the second-order response of plasmonic nanoantennas by applying a deliberate tuning scheme for the optical excitations as well as by choosing an intelligent nanoantenna design. In the second part, we examine the material model for Raman-active dielectrics. In particular, we see how to derive the third-order nonlinear response by which one can describe the process of stimulated Raman scattering. We show how to incorporate this third-order response into the DGTD scheme yielding a novel set of auxiliary differential equations. Finally, we demonstrate the workings of the modified numerical scheme.

Texto completoThis thesis describes the design, fabrication and the optical characterization of plasmon-resonant systems able to confine and enhance light fields down to the sub-wavelength scale. Extensive 3D numerical modeling was first used to design different geometries of coupled plasmonic nanostructures through the calculation of their far-field and near-field optical response. On the basis of simulations, the nanostructures were fabricated by e-beam lithography and thin film deposition. Special efforts were devoted to increasing the resolution and optimizing the reproducibility of critical parameters such as particle shape and interparticle gaps. Finally, far-field spectroscopy combined with two-photon induced luminescence (TPL) spectroscopy was used to probe the local optical response of the optimized architectures. We focused our attention on different families of structures: metal dimers, bar antennas, finite chains of nanoparticles and star-like particle arrangements. Particle dimers feature strong field enhancements in their sub-wavelength gap due to near-field coupling of their dipolar localized plasmon resonances. Based on the same physics, gap antennas, formed by two adjacent gold bars supporting multipolar resonances can efficiently couple to propagating light and concentrate it into tiny volumes. While finite particle chains were previously shown by other authors to be good candidates to guide light through subwavelength cross-sections, we show here that they can also be used as efficient nanolenses able to concentrate light at their extremity. Finally, the near-field distribution in star-like arrangements of gold nanoparticles exhibits a strong dependence with the incident field polarization which can be exploited for dynamical optical addressing of nano-objects. We have compared the far field spectroscopy of large ensembles of dimers and finite chains to TPL spectroscopy. Our main result is to show that TPL is preferentially sensitive to local fields and that it enables the assessment of spectroscopic features which cannot be resolved otherwise. In order to overcome the limitations of measurements on large ensembles a considerable effort was dedicated to mounting and optimizing an optical set-up enabling TPL measurement of single structures. Using the developed TPL micro-spectroscopy, spatially resolved spectral mode mapping on single resonant gap-antennas was achieved. As predicted by calculations, we were able to directly visualize at resonance the strongly enhanced TPL signal within the gap. Our results show how TPL scans can be directly compared with the convoluted distribution of the fourth power of the calculated local mode field. By monitoring the evolution with the incident wavelength of the TPL signal within the gap and at the antenna extremities we got further insight in the physical mechanism behind the buildup of the antenna’s resonance. Finally, TPL microscopy was used to probe the local fields under different orientations of the incident linear polarization near star-like arrangement of gold disks. It is shown that, unlike the scattering spectrum, the TPL distribution over the structure is found to depend drastically on the incident polarization state. Our study brings a significant contribution to the field of Plasmon optics by proposing novel geometries able to efficiently confine optical fields down to the nanometric scale, but also by providing deep insight into the use of TPL microspectroscopy to probe their local optical response. Our findings are foreseen to be important in applications such as enhanced spectroscopy, bio-sensing and enhanced light-matter interaction, where one needs to assess the actual field experienced by small amounts of matter.

Texto completoIn this thesis, we exploit light-matter interaction between a single semiconductor CdSe/CdS nanocrystal and a plasmonic patch antenna. This work can be divided in two main parts. We have first characterized the photoluminescence dynamics and spectroscopic signatures of single nanocrystals at different excitation powers. High quality CdSe/CdS nanocrystals are single-photon sources at room temperature. Nevertheless, multiexcitonic emission occurs when two or more excitons are recombining radiatively. We have developed an analytical model which describes the number of photons emitted by a nanocrystal as a function of the mean number of excitons created in one excitation pulse. With this model, we can calculate the quantum efficiency of the bi-exciton recombination. The second part is devoted to the development and optimization of an optical lithography protocol for patch antennas. We have stablished a protocol that allows us to couple a thin Au nano-disk above a single nanocrystal in a deterministic way. We have first fabricated passive nanoantennas in order to study reflectivity spectroscopic properties in the plasmonic structure. Later on, we have fabricated several active patch nanoantennas coupled with single CdSe/CdS nanocrystals. We have demonstrated the acceleration of spontaneous emission thanks to the coupling with the plasmons nanodisk. For some antennas, we have evidenced a super-poissonian emission signature when a post-processing temporal filter is applied. Finally, we have evidenced the emission of light partially coherent of one antenna in the proximity of the metallic square edge

Texto completoNanoantennas have the ability to manipulate light both spatially and spectrally at the nanoscale. They can be arranged in arrays by the periodization of a pattern in order to construct tunable metasurfaces with spatially homogeneous properties. A promising application is the use of nanoantennas as thermal emitters for the design of infrared sources that bypass the limitations of conventional ones. Nevertheless, ensemble measurements give rise to collective effects such as inter-antenna coupling that are liable to impair the global optical response compared to that of the unit cell. The objective of this thesis is to develop highly-sensitive experimental methods that can resolve the intrinsic optical response of a subwavelength structure so that resonant processes at the single nano-antenna scale are better understood.The study hinges on two main research axes, one dedicated to a near-field technique using a thermal radiation scanning tunneling microscope for super-resolved imaging, the other pertaining to the development of an original experimental set-up that can extract the emission spectrum of a single nanoantenna in the far field. Following the results obtained with single nanoantennas, more complex structures comprised of several nanoantennas are investigated to characterize their interaction. This work paves the way towards design improvement of nanophotonic structures based on nanoantennas and control over their behavior in both the near field and the far field

Texto completoNano-antennas are nanostructured componentscapable of concentrating light in subwavelengthvolumes, exalting the electric field by severalorders of magnitude. This is particularly interestingfor the generation of nonlinear effects, which dependon the powers of the incident electric field. Actually,the second order non-linear effects, which allowfrequency conversion phenomena, such as secondharmonic generation (SHG), or difference frequencygeneration (DFG), depend on the square of the electricfield. Thus, if we include a nonlinear crystal in anano-antenna, we can significantly enhance these effects.The objective of this thesis is thus to designnano-antennas that can efficiently generate secondorder nonlinear effects. Such devices could be appliedto the creation of new sources for infrared spectroscopy.The thesis work ranges from electromagnetic modellingof nonlinear effects in nanostructures to experimentaldemonstration. The modelling of nonlinear polarizationgenerated along the optical axis has beendeveloped using a B-Spline modal method for linearcalculations. This model has allowed to simulate thenonlinear effects related to this polarization, to refinethe understanding of physical phenomena in multiresonantnanostructures, and to optimize a structurewith an efficiency of 0.1W/W² in difference frequencygeneration in the infrared. The design of a sample allowedthe validation of the resonant properties, as wellas an experimental demonstration of second harmonicgeneration

Texto completoTo overcome throughput limitations of electron beam lithography, Mapper Lithography designed a machine that can expose with up to 649,740 parallel Gaussian electron beams. In the exposure process, the substrate is divided into 2.2-µm-narrow stripes with a 200 nm overlap. Several parameters need to be controlled: the critical dimensions of the features in the individual stripes; the stitching between the stripes; and the overlay with respect to a previous layer. In this thesis, different optical metrology techniques are explored. Six novel targets for an image based overlay have been developed to measure in-stripe overlay and stripe-to-stripe stitching and are evaluated by total measurement uncertainty (TMU) and measurement time. Scatterometry by spectroscopic reflectometry allows for measurement of non-uniform gratings using an effective critical dimension concept, resulting in a total measurement uncertainty metric down to 0.41 nm (3σ). Stitching can be measured by cross-resonant bow-tie antennae, consisting of four triangles straddling the stitching boundary. Simulations for three different stacks show that the DX and DY stitching errors can be reconstructed independently

Plasmonic broadband resonance in gold paired-rods nanoantennas and paired-strips gratings is investigated when the nanostructure’s transverse (non-polarization) dimension is changed from paired-rods to paired-strips. Transmittance spectra and localized electromagnetic fields are analyzed when localized surface plasmon resonance occurs. Increasing the transverse dimension blue shifts the resonance wavelength and widens its bandwidth due to cancellation of the magnetic field between nanoantennas. A derived resistor-inductor-capacitor (RLC) equivalent circuit model verifies the nanostructures’ resonance when elongating the transverse dimensions. Paired-strips gratings have a bandwidth 2.04 times and mode area 2.18 times that of paired-rods nanoantennas.

A gold plasmonic nanoantenna can provide additional local density of optical states (LDOS) for excited quantum emitters to radiative decay and thereby can shape the emission properties of the emitters. One example is the modulation of the antenna’s photoluminescence spectrum. Here, we fabricate gold nanoantennas with various size and study the modulation effect of gold nanoantennas systematically. All of the symmetry antennas show obvious modulation effects on the photoluminescence spectrum due to the transverse resonance, antibonding, higher-order and fundamental longitudinal localized surface plasmon resonance mode. The spectral features are in good agreement with that in the spectra obtained from dark-field scattering and numerical simulations. However, we have repeatedly observed extraordinary blue spectral shift for resonant modes between scattering and photoluminescence spectrum in symmetry antenna, but can’t observe in single nanorod. Our work shows that photoluminescence is strongly modulated by the LDOS of the nanoantennas and therefore can be used as a local luminescence source to report the LDOS.

Due to the weak signal of circular dichroism(CD) spectrum, this thesis uses finite-difference time-domain(FDTD) to simulate that enhanced optical chirality produced by plasmonic nanoantenna can improve CD signals. We present a design of plasmonic nanoantenna which has slant gap. When plasmonic nanoantenna at resonance by varying the total antenna length, the gap generates highly enhanced electric field that parallel to impinging magnetic field with a phase delay of π⁄2, lead to enhanced optical chirality. On the other hand, tuning the slant angle of the gap also has an influence on enhanced optical chirality. Thus, we can manipulate the enhancement of optical chirality by tuning the total length and the slant angle of plasmonic nanoantenna. Besides, we also show that asymmetric cross antenna can generate optical chirality above the antenna and interact with the dielectric material. We build cavity ring-down spectroscopy(CRDS) for experiment. CRDS has high sensitivity and it can combine with total internal reflection to have higher signal to noise ratio. In the future, combine CRDS with slant gap plasmonic nanoantenna or asymmetric cross antenna, we are able to obtain enhanced circular dichroism by linearly polarized light instead of circularly polarized light.

In this paper, we discussed the parameter of grating arrays and characteristics. We use finite-difference time-domain method (FDTD) and adjust characteristics of grating arrays, due to the double-wavelength single-focal-point plasmonic nanoantennas and the multiple-wavelength plasmonic nanoantennas arrays have been proposed. We design a new IR multiple-wavelength plasmonic nanoantennas structures by adjust characteristics of grating arrays rods. The numerical results show that the multiple-focal plasminic nanoantennas arrays can focus light waves in seven focal points at seven IR wavelengths. The electric field intensity enhancement is at least 750 in each arrays. Next, we design the double wavelength single-focal plasmonic nanoantennas resonating at the optical communication wavelengths 1310nm, 1490nm and 1550nm simultaneously by arranging the straight and the oblique grating arrays. The numerical results show that the structures resonating at the optical communication wavelengths 1310nm and 1490nm and 1550nm simultaneously by the single-focal point plasmonic nanoantennas to focus light waves at the same focal point. The electric field intensity enhancement is at least 600. In the age of information explosion, these structures would be the potential main components in the applications of optical manipulation,multi-spectral single-molecule spectroscopy in molecule detections and biological sensing devices.

Solution-processed nanomaterials (NMs) have attracted much attention owing to their unique photo-physical and materials properties that have been applied in a variety of promising applications in biophotonics and optoelectronics. Recently, quantum-dot (QD) based displays have been commercialized by Sony and Samsung, which can outperform conventional LED-based displays. Unfortunately, the most mature nanomaterial systems all rely on heavy-metal-containing semiconductor compounds, such as CdSe, CdTe, and PbSe, which would be replaced with less toxic or even eco-friendly nanomaterials. Recently, heavy-metal-free NMs, such as I-III-VI CuInS2 QDs, gold nanoclusters and carbon dots (CDs) have been developed, which would be alternatives to toxic Cd/Pb based QDs. Unfortunately, those “green” NMs only hold moderate photo-physical properties, such as low photoluminescence (PL) quantum yields in the solid states and long radiative lifetime. To address these issues, the plasmonic nanoantennas with broad resonance bandwidth can be used to couple spectral broad light emitters thanks to the Purcell effect. Here, three types of "green" NMs, namely CDs, core/shell CuInS2/ZnS QDs, and metal nanoclusters, were investigated using steady-state, time-resolved and spatial resolved PL spectroscopy. The whole sample configuration consist of gold thin film coated substrate, a thin dielectric layer doped with "green" NMs, and plasmonic nanoantennas. We found that upon coupling to such hybrid nanoantennas, In despite of distinct PL emission mechanism of three-type NMs, the PL emission of those emitters can be enhanced accompanied with large PL lifetime shortening. Based on the analyses of the experimental data, large acceleration of radiative decay rates is responsible for the observed behavior. Our demonstrate can pave a way to further design "green" light sources with sub-nanosecond PL lifetime, which is much beneficial for their applications in light-emitting related devices.

Au-nanocrystal-array/silicon nanoantennas exhibiting wavelength-selective photocurrent enhancement were successfully fabricated by a facile and inexpensive method combining colloidal lithography (CL) and a metal-assisted chemical etching (MaCE) process for the first time. These nanoantennas comprise Au nanocrystal arrays inlaid in silicon substrates with controllable degree of immersion. The localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) response and wavelength- selective photocurrent enhancement characteristics were achieved by tuning the depth of immersion of Au nanocrystal arrays in silicon through a MaCE process. Compared to conventional Au particles on Si, the high near-field enhancement increases with the fraction of their volume in intimate contact with the substrate in the Au nanocrystal array inlaid Si structure. On the other hand, LSPR responses, which are extremely sensitive to dielectric properties of metal and the surrounding environment, can be tuned by the depth of immersion of Au nanocrystal array on/in silicon. The wavelength selectivity of photocurrent enhancement contributed by LSPR induced local field amplification was confirmed by simulated near-field distribution. The wavelength maximum of LSPR scattering (max) exhibits sensitivity to the surrounding environment and shows consistence with the simulated results obtained by the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. The wavelength-selective photocurrent enhancement characteristics were measured under illumination of lasers of different wavelengths and under dark conditions. In addition, the repeatability of wavelength-selective photocurrent enhancement was also tested by multiple ON/OFF cycles and can be exploited as photoswitches. The wavelength-selective photocurrent enhancement (>70 %) operated under low voltage (<200 mV) was achieved under laser illumination coincident to its LSPR max. In addition, the wavelength-selective photocurrent enhancement can be elucidated by the FDTD simulations of the near-field enhancements (|E|^2), which can intensify local electromagnetic field and optical absorption. The good tunability over LSPR responses and wavelength-selective photocurrent enhancement characteristics can be exploited as low power-consumption photoswitches and nano-optoelectronic and photonic communication devices. Furthermore, it can be integrated into the well-developed Si-based manufacturing process.

This thesis is divided into two topics, i.e., topic 1: Study of the surface plasmon effects on the periodic array of cavity based Au trapezoid nanoantenna, and topic 2: comparative study of varying media filled inside the cavity based trapezoid nanoantenna with shell thickness of t=10 nm In topic 1, the surface plasmon effects on the periodic array of cavity based trapezoid nanoantenna are investigated by using the finite element method (FEM) in three-dimensional calculation. Simulation results show that the electric field intensity (measured in the gap) of the single cavity cases is much higher than that of the double cavity case. It is shown that the red-shift of the proposed nanoantenna with single cavity increases as the shell thickness increases, and the red-shift can be reached a value of 760 nm as the shell thickness t being 5 nm. On the basis of the calculation results from topic 1, we further explored the surface plasmon effects arising from various dielectric media filled inside the cavity of the proposed nanoantennas with shell thickness t=10 nm and found that the electric field intensity (measured in the gap) of double cavity cases is much higher than that of single cavity case. Besides, the red-shift obtained from the double cavity cases is larger than that of single one. The red-shift can be reached a value of 550 nm for single cavity cases and 660 nm for double cavity cases.
