چکیده

We theoretically investigate the strong coupling between a single molecule and a single metallic nanoparticle. A theory suited for the quantum-mechanical description of surface plasmon polaritons SPPs is developed. The coupling between these SPPs and a single molecule, and the modified molecular dynamics in the presence of the nanoparticle are described within a combined Drude and boundary-element-method approach. Our results show that strong coupling is possible for single molecules and metallic nanoparticles and can be observed in fluorescence spectroscopy through the splitting of emission peaks.

Temperature dependence of I-V characteristics of C60 molecule

Making use of a generalized Green’s function technique and Landauer formalism, the temperature depended current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of C60 molecule, sandwiched between two metallic electrodes are numerically investigated. In addition, the influence of the electron-phonon coupling strength on the electronic properties of the molecule is studied. The I-V characteristics of the molecule ...

Multifrequency multi-qubit entanglement based on plasmonic hot spots

The theoretical method to study strong coupling between an ensemble of quantum emitters (QEs) and surface plasmons excited by the nanoparticle cluster has been presented by using a rigorous first-principles electromagnetic Green's tensor technique. We have demonstrated that multi-qubit entanglements for two-level QEs can be produced at different coupling resonance frequencies, when they locate ...

DNA origami based assembly of gold nanoparticle dimers for surface-enhanced Raman scattering.

Plasmonic sensors are extremely promising candidates for label-free single-molecule analysis but require exquisite control over the physical arrangement of metallic nanostructures. Here we employ self-assembly based on the DNA origami technique for accurate positioning of individual gold nanoparticles. Our innovative design leads to strong plasmonic coupling between two 40 nm gold nanoparticles...

خواص ترابری الکترون در سیستم CNT/trans-PA/CNT

  Using a tight-binding model and a tranfer-matrix technique, we numerically investigate the effects of the coupling strength, and the length of the molecule on the electronic transmission through a CNT/(single) molecule/CNT system. With trans-polyacetylene (trans-PA) as the molecule sandwiched between two semi-infinite carbon nanotube(CNT), we rely on Landauer formalism as the basis for studyi...
