Surface plasmon-polariton mediated light emission through thin metal films.
The emission of light by sources in close proximity to a thin metallic film is dominated by surface plasmon-polariton modes supported by that film. We explore the nature of the modes and examine how the energy lost to such modes can be recovered. Both cross-coupled and coupled SPPs are presented as a means of transferring energy across a thin metal film. These modes are then scattered and there...
متن کاملSurface-plasmon-assisted resonant tunneling of light through a periodically corrugated thin metal film.
We present experimental results and a numerical model confirming that surface plasmons can resonantly enhance light transmission through a corrugated metal film. A new interpretation in terms of plasmon-assisted light tunneling is given to recent experiments on light penetration through periodic subwavelength holes in a thin metal film. We designed a narrow-band filter suitable for applications...
متن کاملSurface Plasmon Resonance Sensor with Magneto-optical Thin Film
Thanks to resonant excitation of surface plasmons, SPR sensors including ferromagnetic thin films allow the enhancement of the magneto-optical response. MO-SPR structures with Au/Co/Au sandwiches are theoretically analyzed in transverse configuration. The influence of sandwich film thicknesses and layer order is discussed. The optimized geometry and corresponding feedback are specified.
متن کاملExcitation and emission enhancement of single molecule fluorescence through multiple surface-plasmon resonances on metal trimer nanoantennas.
We study theoretically the light scattering from trimers of metal nanowires, with emphasis on the occurrence of multiple surface-plasmon resonances, showing that such resonances can be exploited to achieve twofold-enhanced fluorescence from a single molecule placed in the nanotrimer gaps, even if excitation and emission frequencies are separated. Pump enhancement stems from the local field enha...
متن کاملAntibonding plasmon mode coupling of an individual hole in a thin metallic film
The polarization dependence of the optical properties of individual subwavelength holes in a thin metallic film is studied using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy. We show that for parallel polarization of the incident light, the coupling is predominantly to short-range bonding film plasmons while for perpendicular polarization the incident light couples more efficiently to long-range antibond...
