Far-infrared graphene plasmonic crystals for plasmonic band engineering.
We introduce far-infrared graphene plasmonic crystals. Periodic structural perturbation-in a proof-of-concept form of hexagonal lattice of apertures-of a continuous graphene medium alters delocalized plasmonic dynamics, creating plasmonic bands in a manner akin to photonic crystals. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy demonstrates band formation, where far-infrared irradiation excites a uni...
متن کاملUltrathin niobium nanofilms on fiber optical tapers – a new route towards low-loss hybrid plasmonic modes
Due to the ongoing improvement in nanostructuring technology, ultrathin metallic nanofilms have recently gained substantial attention in plasmonics, e.g. as building blocks of metasurfaces. Typically, noble metals such as silver or gold are the materials of choice, due to their excellent optical properties, however they also possess some intrinsic disadvantages. Here, we introduce niobium nanof...
متن کاملRapid-Response Low Infrared Emission Broadband Ultrathin Plasmonic Light Absorber
Plasmonic nanostructures can significantly advance broadband visible-light absorption, with absorber thicknesses in the sub-wavelength regime, much thinner than conventional broadband coatings. Such absorbers have inherently very small heat capacity, hence a very rapid response time, and high light power-to-temperature sensitivity. Additionally, their surface emissivity can be spectrally tuned ...
متن کاملDirect observation of below-diffraction-limited optical spot induced by nonlinear saturable absorption of Ag-doped Si nanofilms.
In this work, using the scanning near-field optical fiber probe method, we carry out a direct observation of below-diffraction-limited optical spot induced by nonlinear saturable absorption characteristic of Ag-doped Si nanofilms. The experimental results indicate that the squeezed spot size decreases with laser power increase, and the smallest spot can be squeezed to 68% of the diffraction-lim...
متن کاملFar-infrared Graphene Plasmonic Crystals for Plasmonic Band Engineering — SUPPORTING INFORMATION —
Our graphene plasmonic crystals are realized by creating hexagonal lattices of apertures in continuous graphene media. The hexagonal lattice—whether its aperture is circularly or hexagonally shaped—possesses the C6v point group symmetry with 6-fold rotation axes and 6 reflection planes; see Fig. S1 in case of the hexagonal lattice with circular apertures. Following the crystallographic conventi...
