Investigation of metallic surface layers on metals by surface plasmon ATR spectroscopy
نویسندگان
چکیده
2014 The optical properties of very thin Ag layers on Al surfaces were investigated in the vicinity of the Ag effective plasma frequency, by attenuated total reflection with surface plasma wave excitation. The complex dielectric constant of the adsorbed layers is found to be similar to that of bulk Ag provided non-local effects (longitudinal plasma waves) are taken into account.

Long-range surface plasmon polaritons at THz frequencies in thin semiconductor layers
We present a theoretical investigation of THz long-range surface plasmon polaritons propagating on thin layers of InSb. The metallic behavior of doped semiconductors at THz frequencies allows the excitation of surface plasmon polaritons with propagation and confinement lengths that can be actively controlled. This control is achieved by acting on the free carrier density, which can be realized ...
متن کاملTunable Plasmonic Nanoparticles Based on Prolate Spheroids
Metallic nanoparticles can exhibit very large optical extinction in the visible spectrum due to localized surface plasmon resonance. Spherical plasmonic nanoparticles have been the subject of numerous studies in recent years due to the fact that the scattering response of spheres can be analytically evaluated using Mie theory. However a major disadvantage of metallic spherical nanoparticles is ...

Deposition of behenic acid (B.A) mono and bilayers onto gold coated surfaces was performed by Langmuir-Blodget dip-casting technique. Surface Plasmon resonance (SPR) and ellipsometry methods were employed for investigation of the monolayer and bilayer films. The adsorption of the biologically important molecule Concanavalin A (Con A) from bulk solution to these monolayers and bilayers as we...
متن کاملResonant Excitation of Confined Excitons in Nanocrystal Quantum Dots Using Surface Plasmon-Polaritons
Surface plasmon-polaritons (SPPs) in a multilayer structure consisting of a metallic film and one or more layers of nanocrystal (NC) quantum dots (QDs) are studied theoretically. It is shown that there is a resonance coupling between the plasmon-polaritons propagating along the metal/NC-layer interface and excitons confined in the dots, which produces a considerable effect on the optical proper...
