Terahertz emission from surface-immobilized gold nanospheres.
Electromagnetic wave emission based on optical rectification at terahertz (THz) wavelengths was observed from surface-immobilized gold nanospheres (SIGNs) above a gold surface. Although the excitation wavelength is off-resonant with the localized surface plasmons, the THz emission field was observed to be approximately 4.8 times greater than that from a percolated gold thin film of 10 nm thickn...
متن کاملTerahertz plasmon and surface-plasmon modes in hollow nanospheres
: We present a theoretical study of the electronic subband structure and collective electronic excitation associated with plasmon and surface plasmon modes in metal-based hollow nanosphere. The dependence of the electronic subband energy on the sample parameters of the hollow nanosphere is examined. We find that the subband states with different quantum numbers l degenerate roughly when the out...
متن کاملChanneling motion of gold nanospheres on a rippled glassed surface.
Gold nanospheres have been manipulated by atomic force microscopy on a rippled glass surface produced by ion beam sputtering and coated with an ultrathin (10 nm thick) graphitic layer. This substrate is characterized by irregular wavy grooves running parallel to a preferential direction. Measurements in ambient conditions show that the motion of the nanoparticles is confined to single grooves (...
متن کاملSurface plasmon-based nanopatterning assisted by gold nanospheres.
A pulsed laser is used to produce surface plasmon excitation in a monolayer of gold (Au) spheres to nanopattern a silicon substrate. An electrodynamic model accompanies the experimental data, based on the numerical solution to the complete Maxwell's equations including near- and far-field effects and reflection from the substrate. The Drude-employing finite-difference time-domain method describ...
متن کاملTerahertz emission from Ga1−xInxSb
We report an experimental study on terahertz THz emission from Ga1−xInxSb with 0 x 1. THz emission is excited by femtosecond near-infrared laser pulses. For this material system THz emission is maximized for an In mole fraction x 0.5. The maximum in THz emission occurs as a result of carrier compensation NA NB for this specific material composition. The THz emission from n-type InSb is twice as...
