Strong coupling between surface plasmon-polaritons and organic molecules in subwavelength hole arrays
نویسندگان
چکیده
The interaction of a J-aggregate and surface plasmon polariton modes of a subwavelength hole array have been studied in detail. By measuring the effects of hole array period, angular dispersion and concentration of the J-aggregate on the transmission of the array, the existence of a strong coupling regime is demonstrated with a Rabi splitting of 250 meV. This large splitting is explained not only by the high oscillator strength of the dye but also by the high local field amplitudes generated by surface plasmons of the metallic structure.

Spoof surface plasmon polaritons in terahertz transmission through subwavelength hole arrays analyzed by coupled oscillator model
Both the localized resonance and excitation of spoof surface plasmon polaritons are observed in the terahertz transmission spectra of periodic subwavelength hole arrays. Analyzing with the coupled oscillator model, we find that the terahertz transmission is actually facilitated by three successive processes: the incident terahertz field first initiates the localized oscillation around each hole...
متن کاملTailoring the sensing capabilities of nanohole arrays in gold films with Rayleigh anomaly-surface plasmon polaritons.
Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) and diffraction effects such as Rayleigh anomalies (RAs) play key roles in the transmission of light through periodic subwavelength hole arrays in metal films. Using a combination of theory and experiment we show how refractive index (RI) sensitive transmission features arise from hole arrays in thin gold films. We show that large transmission amplitude changes...
متن کاملUniversal optical transmission features in periodic and quasiperiodic hole arrays.
We investigate the influence of array order in the optical transmission properties of subwavelength hole arrays, by comparing the experimental spectral transmittance of periodic and quasiperiodic hole arrays as a function of frequency. We find that periodicity and long-range order are not necessary requirements for obtaining enhanced and suppressed optical transmission, provided short-range ord...
متن کاملRayleigh anomaly-surface plasmon polariton resonances in palladium and gold subwavelength hole arrays.
Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) and Rayleigh anomalies (RAs) are two characteristic phenomena exhibited by periodic grating structures made of plasmonic materials. For Au subwavelength hole arrays, SPPs and RAs from opposite sides of the film can interact under certain conditions to produce highly intense, narrow spectral features called RA-SPP resonances. This paper reports how RA-SPP effect...
متن کاملMechanism of enhancement in absorbance of vibrational bands of adsorbates at a metal mesh with subwavelength hole arrays.
We have investigated the mechanism of enhanced absorption intensities of vibrational bands of adsorbates on copper meshes with subwavelength holes by measuring and simulating temporal profiles of infrared pulses transmitted through the meshes. As reported previously [Williams et al., J. Phys. Chem. B, 2003, 107, 11871], the absorption intensities of CH stretching bands of alkanethiolate adsorbe...
