Large-scale sub-100 nm compound plasmonic grating arrays to control the interaction between localized and propagating plasmons

Olivier Martin, Arash Farhang, Thomas Gerd Siegfried

Compound plasmonic resonances arise due to the interaction between discrete and continuous metallic nanostructures. Such combined nanostructures provide a versatility and tunability beyond that of most other metallic nanostructures. In order to observe suc ...

Metal Double Layers with Sub-10 nm Channels

Olivier Martin, Thomas Gerd Siegfried, Li Wang

Double-layer plasmonic nanostructures are fabricated by depositing metal at normal incidence onto various resist masks, forming an antenna layer on top of the resist post and a hole layer on the substrate. Antenna plasmon resonances are found to couple to ...

Plasmonic Radiance: Probing Structure at the Ångström Scale with Visible Light

Olivier Martin, Benjamin Gallinet, Thomas Gerd Siegfried

Plasmonic modes with long radiative lifetimes combine strong nanoscale light confinement with a narrow spectral line width carrying the signature of Fano resonances, making them very promising for nanophotonic applications such as sensing, lasing, and swit ...

Reusable plasmonic substrates fabricated by interference lithography: a platform for systematic sensing studies

Olivier Martin, Thomas Gerd Siegfried

Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) has become increasingly popular in the scientific and industrial communities because of its analytical capabilities and potential to study fundamentals in plasmonics. Although under certain conditions extremely high ...

Engineering Metal Adhesion Layers That Do Not Deteriorate Plasmon Resonances

Olivier Martin, Thomas Gerd Siegfried

Adhesion layers, required to stabilize metallic nanostngtures, dramatically deteriorate the performances of plasmonic sensors, by severely damping the plasmon modes. In this article, we show that these detrimental effects critically depend on the overlap o ...

Gap Plasmons and Near-Field Enhancement in Closely Packed Sub-10 nm Gap Resonators

Olivier Martin, Thomas Gerd Siegfried

Pairs of metal nanoparticles with a sub-10 nm gap are an efficient way to achieve extreme near-field enhancement for sensing applications. We demonstrate an attractive alternative based on Fabry-Perot type nanogap resonators, where the resonance is defined ...
