Terahertz 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 کاملSurface plasmon modes and the Casimir energy.
We show the influence of surface plasmons on the Casimir effect between two plane parallel metallic mirrors at arbitrary distances. Using the plasma model to describe the optical response of the metal, we express the Casimir energy as a sum of contributions associated with evanescent surface plasmon modes and propagative cavity modes. In contrast to naive expectations, the plasmonic mode contri...
متن کاملTerahertz Optoelectronics with Surface Plasmon Polariton Diode
The field of plasmonics has experience a renaissance in recent years by providing a large variety of new physical effects and applications. Surface plasmon polaritons, i.e. the collective electron oscillations at the interface of a metal/semiconductor and a dielectric, may bridge the gap between electronic and photonic devices, provided a fast switching mechanism is identified. Here, we demonst...
متن کاملSurface-modified GaAs terahertz plasmon emitter
We studied the THz emission from n-GaAs plasmon emitters modified by low-temperature-grown ~LT! GaAs surface layers. The THz emission is increased since the LT GaAs pins the Fermi level at a midgap position, increasing the surface depletion field. For a THz emitter with a 70-nm-thick LT GaAs layer we observe without external fields a THz emission intensity of 140 nW. In addition, the long-term ...
متن کاملUniversal Scaling of Surface Plasmon Modes
Plasmons are collective electron oscillations, preferentially excitable in metals and can be seen as propagating density waves of conduction electrons. They are whether of bulk type and propagate within the material (“3D plasmon”), or along the metal’s surface (2D or surface plasmon). In nanooptics surface plasmons are of special interest, because they can be excited optically (generated at opt...
