Selectively Exciting and Probing Radiative Plasmon Modes on Short Gold Nanorods by Scanning Tunneling Microscope-Induced Light Emission

Olivier Martin, Andreas Stemmer, Yalan Ma

We study the plasmon modes of gold nanorods (as short as similar to 100 nm) on a nonmetallic conductive substrate using scanning tunneling microscope-induced light emission (STM-LE) with a nonplasmonic tungsten tip at room temperature in high vacuum (10-7 ...

Near-Infrared Plasmon-Induced Hot Electron Extraction Evidence in an Indium Tin Oxide Nanoparticle/Monolayer Molybdenum Disulfide Heterostructure

Michele Ghini, Andrea Villa

In this work, we observe plasmon-induced hot electron extraction in a heterojunction between indium tin oxide nanocrystals and monolayer molybdenum disulfide. We study the sample with ultrafast differential transmission, exciting the sample at 1750 nm wher ...

AMER CHEMICAL SOC2022

We report thorough measurements of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) running along nearly perfect air-gold interfaces formed by atomically flat surfaces of chemically synthesized gold monocrystals. By means of amplitude-and phase-resolved near-field micros ...

Hot carrier-mediated avalanche multiphoton photoluminescence from coupled Au–Al nanoantennas

Olivier Martin, Jérémy Butet

Avalanche multiphoton photoluminescence (AMPL) is observed from coupled Au–Al nanoantennas under intense laser pumping, which shows more than one order of magnitude emission intensity enhancement and distinct spectral features compared with ordinary metall ...

Eigenmode coalescence imparts remarkable properties to non-Hermitian time evolution, culminating in a purely non-Hermitian spectral degeneracy known as an exceptional point (EP). Here, we revisit time evolution around EPs, looking at both static and period ...

Optical soliton molecules are bound states of solitons that arise from the balance between attractive and repulsive effects. Having been observed in systems ranging from optical fibres to mode-locked lasers, they provide insights into the fundamental inter ...

Second-harmonic generation (SHG) is investigated from three kinds of lithographically fabricated plasmonic systems: Al monomers, Au monomers and Au-Al heterodimers with nanogaps of 20 nm. Spectrally integrated SHG intensities and the linear optical respons ...

2019

Second harmonic (SH) generation (SHG) in plasmonic nanostructures originates from the surface of centrosymmetric metals where inversion symmetry is broken. The interest in that topic stems from the strong near-field enhancement on the surface of plasmonic ...

Less Is More: Enhancement of Second-Harmonic Generation from Metasurfaces by Reduced Nanoparticle Density

Olivier Martin, Jérémy Butet

We investigate optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) from metasurfaces where noncentrosymmetric V-shaped gold nanoparticles are ordered into regular array configurations. In contrast to expectations, a substantial enhancement of the SHG signal is observ ...

Light-Matter Interaction in III-Nitride Waveguides: Propagating Polaritons and Optical Gain

Joachim Armand Simonne Ciers

III-nitride waveguides featuring AlInN claddings and GaN/AlGaN quantum wells (QWs) offer promising perspectives for applications in many fields of short-wavelength photonics. Thanks to their nearly lattice-matched nature, these structures exhibit an excell ...
