Chiral single-wall gold nanotubes.
Based on first-principles calculations we show that gold atoms can form both freestanding and tip-suspended chiral single-wall nanotubes composed of helical atomic strands. The freestanding, infinite (5,5) tube is found to be energetically the most favorable. While energetically less favorable, the experimentally observed (5,3) tube stretching between two tips corresponds to a local minimum in ...
متن کاملFemtosecond surface plasmon pulse propagation.
We analyze ultrafast surface plasmon-polariton pulse reshaping effects and nonlinear propagation modes for metal/dielectric plasmon waveguides. It is found that group velocity and loss dispersion effects can substantially modify both pulse duration (broadening/narrowing) and intensity decay (acceleration/retardation) by as much as several tens of percentage points in the short-pulse regime and ...
متن کاملDispersion relation, propagation length and mode conversion of surface plasmon polaritons in silver double-nanowire systems.
We study the surface plasmon modes in a silver double-nanowire system by employing the eigenmode analysis approach based on the finite element method. Calculated dispersion relations, surface charge distributions, field patterns and propagation lengths of ten lowest energy plasmon modes in the system are presented. These ten modes are categorized into three groups because they are found to orig...
متن کاملIdentification of higher order long-propagation-length surface plasmon polariton modes in chemically prepared gold nanowires.
A comprehensive understanding of the type of modes and their propagation length for surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) in gold nanowires is essential for potential applications of these materials as nanoscale optical waveguides. We have studied chemically synthesized single gold nanowires by a novel technique called bleach-imaged plasmon propagation (BlIPP), which relies on the plasmonic near-fi...
متن کاملInfluence of cross sectional geometry on surface plasmon polariton propagation in gold nanowires.
We investigated the effects of cross sectional geometry on surface plasmon polariton propagation in gold nanowires (NWs) using bleach-imaged plasmon propagation and electromagnetic simulations. Chemically synthesized NWs have pentagonally twinned crystal structures, but recent advances in synthesis have made it possible to amplify this pentagonal shape to yield NWs with a five-pointed-star cros...
