Double bi-material cantilever structures for complex surface plasmon modulation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A complex modulation structure of surface plasmon polaritons using double bi-material cantilevers is proposed. It is shown with numerical analysis that the thermally controlled mechanical actuation of double bi-material cantilevers can modulate the amplitude and phase of surface plasmon polaritons across a full complex modulation range independently and simultaneously. The complex modulation structures designed for visible wavelengths are presented and their multi-wavelength integration is discussed.

The aim of this study is experimental assay of sensitivity and stability of a bimetallic silver/gold SPR sensor chip. This chip utilizes the sensitivity of the silver and the stability of the gold. Moreover, the Silver layer (instead of usual Cr or Ti layer) was used as an adhesive intermediate layer between the Gold layer and the glass substrate. The optimization of the Gold/Silver thickness u...

In this article we study the plasmonic behavior of some stable, highly biocompatible bimetallic metal-dielectric-metal (MDM) and double concentric nanoshell (DCN) structures. By simply switching the material of the inner structure from Au to Ag, the intensity of their surface plasmon resonance could be increased in the optical transparency region of the human tissues up to 20 and 60 percent for...
متن کاملNanoscale conducting oxide PlasMOStor.
We experimentally demonstrate an ultracompact PlasMOStor, a plasmon slot waveguide field-effect modulator based on a transparent conducting oxide active region. By electrically modulating the conducting oxide material deposited into the gaps of highly confined plasmonic slot waveguides, we demonstrate field-effect dynamics giving rise to modulation with high dynamic range (2.71 dB/μm) and low w...
متن کاملSelf-phase-modulation of surface plasmon polaritons
We present an approach for calculating the nonlinear propagation of surface plasmon polaritons in onedimensional planar waveguides consisting of a metal slab or a semi-infinite metal bounded by linear dielectrics, starting with an assumed third-order nonlinearity that characterizes the nonlinear response of the metal. With this approach we model the self-phase-modulation of surface plasmon pola...
