Merging of electronics and photonics at subwavelength dimensions could potentially allow development of ultracompact electro-optic modulators and active optical interconnects. Here, we introduce a field-effect active plasmonic modulator where the metallic ...
Bloch surface waves (BSWs) are surface electromagnetic waves excited at the interface between a truncated periodic dielectric multilayer and a surrounding medium. This particular solution to the Maxwell equations in stratified media has been known since th ...
Following rapid developments in biotechnology and medicine, optical sensing promises to be extremely important in various applications such as drug discovery, environmental monitoring, etc. Refractive index (RI) based optical sensing is straightforward to ...
The present Ph.D. thesis consists in a series of experiments carried out in the Laboratory of Quantum Optoelectronics under the direction of professor Benoît Deveaud-Plédran between April 2006 and April 2010. We study the effect of lateral confinement on t ...
The potential of graphene for photonic applications was evidenced by recent demonstrations of modulators, polarization rotators and isolators. These promising yet preliminary results raise crucial questions: what is the optimal performance achievable by mo ...
Future photonic circuits with the capability of high-speed data processing at optical frequencies will rely on the implementation of efficient emitters and detectors on the nanoscale. Towards this goal, bridging the size mismatch between optical radiation ...
A novel platform suitable for fundamental investigations of light propagation through micro-and nanostructures will be discussed. This platform is based on a dielectric multilayer that sustains Bloch surface waves (BSWs). BSWs are electromagnetic surface w ...
We demonstrate plasmon-mechanical coupling in a metalized nanomechanical oscillator. A coupled surface plasmon is excited in the 25 nm wide gap between two metalized silicon nitride beams. The strong plasmonic dispersion allows the nanomechanical beams the ...
Photonic and plasmonic interactions in multi-layered plasmonic crystals, formed by coupling nanohole-nanoparticle arrays, are investigated. The hybrid structure exhibits extraordinary optical transmission as in single layer nanohole arrays and supports Fab ...
We propose the use of weakly nonlinear passive materials for prospective applications in integrated quantum photonics. It is shown that strong enhancement of native optical nonlinearities by electromagnetic field confinement in photonic crystal resonators ...
