Light Tunneling in Multi-Layered Plasmonic Crystals
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this work, we are demonstrating resonant light transmission through hybrid multi-layered plasmonic crystals, which are formed by a coupled nanohole and a nanoparticle array. This structures are shown to provide the conventional extraordinary optical transmission (EOT) peaks and also a newly found cavity-based mode is introduced with an emphasis to its high sensing capabilities. Plasmon hybridization in coaxial nanocavities is also addressed, where the nanohole array and the nanoparticle array are in the same layer.

Design of Light Multi-layered Shields for Use in Diagnostic Radiology and Nuclear Medicine via MCNP5 Monte Carlo Code
Introduction Lead-based shields are the most widely used attenuators in X-ray and gamma ray fields. The heavy weight, toxicity and corrosion of lead have led researchers towards the development of non-lead shields. Materials and Methods The purpose of this study was to design multi-layered shields for protection against X-rays and gamma rays in diagnostic radiology and nuclear medicine. In this...

Herein we describe the fabrication and characterization of Ag and Au bimetallic plasmonic crystals as a system that exhibits improved capabilities for quantitative, bulk refractive index (RI) sensing and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) as compared to monometallic plasmonic crystals of similar form. The sensing optics, which are bimetallic plasmonic crystals consisting of sequential n...

متن کاملPlasmonic photonic crystals realized through DNA-programmable assembly.
Three-dimensional dielectric photonic crystals have well-established enhanced light-matter interactions via high Q factors. Their plasmonic counterparts based on arrays of nanoparticles, however, have not been experimentally well explored owing to a lack of available synthetic routes for preparing them. However, such structures should facilitate these interactions based on the small mode volume...
متن کاملShaping plasmon beams via the controlled illumination of finite-size plasmonic crystals
Plasmonic crystals provide many passive and active optical functionalities, including enhanced sensing, optical nonlinearities, light extraction from LEDs and coupling to and from subwavelength waveguides. Here we study, both experimentally and numerically, the coherent control of SPP beam excitation in finite size plasmonic crystals under focussed illumination. The correct combination of the i...
