چکیده

Angle-resolved reflection and emission spectra of metal gratings consisting of subwavelength grooves and immersed into rhodamine B and rhodamine 19 solutions are presented. The measured reflection and emission dispersion diagrams reveal the surface plasmon polaritons positions and strong plasmon-mediated emission enhancement, respectively. The same grating could be easily reused for the characterization of different dye molecules.

Spectroscopic studies of liquid solutions of R6G laser dye and Ag nanoparticle aggregates

We have found that R6G laser dye in a concentration of 0.1 g l−1 mixed with a solution of aggregated silver nanoparticles exhibits a new emission band with a maximum at 612 nm. This band does not exist in pure dye of comparable concentration or in a mixture of dye with a solution of single silver nanoparticles. A qualitatively similar red-shifted emission band is observed in pure R6G dye at ver...

Hydrogen sensing by localized surface plasmon resonance in colloidal solutions of Au-WO3-Pd

Nowadays, hydrogen has attracted significant attention as a next generation clean energy source. Hydrogen is highly flammable, so detection of hydrogen gas is required. Gold nanoparticle based localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) is an advanced and powerful sensing technique, which is well known for its high sensitivity to surrounding refractive index change in the local environment. We p...

Nanostructured Metal Aggregate-Assisted Lasing in Rhodamine 6G Solutions

We report on the experimental demonstration of considerable lowering of stimulated luminescence (lasing) threshold in R6G laser dye solution doped with metal agglomerates (Ag, Al, Ni) upon second harmonic of Nd:YAG-laser illumination. Due to strong structural coupling between individual nanoparticles, they may form fractal agglomerates providing an extreme optical pump-field enhancement near th...

Enhancement of spontaneous and stimulated emission of a rhodamine 6G dye by an Ag aggregate

We have demonstrated that by adding the solution of aggregated silver nanoparticles to the solution of rhodamine 6G dye, one can enhance the efficiency of spontaneous and stimulated emission. We attribute an increase of the spontaneous emission intensity of dye to the increase of the absorption efficiency caused by the field enhancements in metallic nanostructures associated with surface plasmo...

Surface plasmon polariton-mediated enhancement of the emission of dye molecules on metallic gratings

We present measurements of iso-frequency dispersion surfaces of light scattered from metallic micro-gratings with different periods. The dispersion surfaces, obtained using an infinity-corrected microscope objective, exhibit maxima attributed to diffracted orders as they become evanescent and pronounced minima due to the resonant excitation of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs). We have also mea...
