Influence of metal deposition on exciton-surface plasmon polariton coupling in GaAs/AlAs/GaAs core-shell nanowires studied with time-resolved cathodoluminescence.
The coupling of excitons to surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) in Au- and Al-coated GaAs/AlAs/GaAs core-shell nanowires, possessing diameters of ~100 nm, was probed using time-resolved cathodoluminescence (CL). Excitons were generated in the metal coated nanowires by injecting a pulsed high-energy electron beam through the thin metal films. The Purcell enhancement factor (FP) was obtained by dir...
متن کاملAchromatic flat optical components via compensation between structure and material dispersions
Chromatism causes great quality degradation of the imaging system, especially for diffraction imaging. The most commonly method to overcome chromatism is refractive/diffractive hybrid optical system which, however, sacrifices the light weight and integration property of diffraction elements. A method through compensation between the structure dispersion and material dispersion is proposed to ov...
متن کاملPlasmon spectroscopy and imaging of individual gold nanodecahedra: a combined optical microscopy, cathodoluminescence, and electron energy-loss spectroscopy study.
Imaging localized plasmon modes in noble-metal nanoparticles is of fundamental importance for applications such as ultrasensitive molecular detection. Here, we demonstrate the combined use of optical dark-field microscopy (DFM), cathodoluminescence (CL), and electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) to study localized surface plasmons on individual gold nanodecahedra. By exciting surface plasmon...
متن کاملArbitrary Super Surface Modes Bounded by Multilayered Metametal
The dispersion of the fundamental super mode confined along the boundary between a multilayer metal-insulator (MMI) stack and a dielectric coating is theoretically analyzed and compared to the dispersion of surface waves on a single metal-insulator (MI) boundary. Based on the classical Kretschmann setup, the MMI system is experimentally tested as an anisotropic material to exhibit plasmonic beh...
متن کاملThe excitation and emission of terahertz surface plasmon polaritons on metal wire waveguides
The development of effective techniques for guiding pulsed terahertz radiation is essential for the continued development of terahertz spectroscopy and imaging applications based on the technique of time-domain spectroscopy. Terahertz surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) can be excited and guided on cylindrical metal wires with low loss and dispersion. This propagating surface wave, known as a Som...
