چکیده
Surface Plasmonic Fields in NANOPHOTONICS The fi eld of nanophotonics is fi nding myriad applications in information technology, health care, lighting, sensing and national security. This article explores the ultrafast electrodynamics of surface plasmonpolariton fi elds on nanostructured metaldielectric boundaries, and describes how to make a sensor to measure chemical reactions at a surface by generating spatially resolved, reactiondependent, spatial and spectral frequency information.

Simulation of Surface Plasmon Excitation in a Plasmonic Nano-Wire Using Surface Integral Equations
In this paper, scattering of a plane and monochromatic electromagnetic wave from a nano-wire is simulated using surface integral equations. First, integral equationsgoverning unknown fields on the surface is obtained based on Stratton-Cho surface integral equations. Then, the interaction of the wave with a non-plasmonic as well as a palsmonic nano-wire is considered. It is shown that in scatter...

Broadband excitation of plasmons allows control of light-matter interaction with nanometric precision at femtosecond timescales. Research in the field has spiked in the past decade in an effort to turn ultrafast plasmonics into a diagnostic, microscopy, computational, and engineering tool for this novel nanometric-femtosecond regime. Despite great developments, this goal has yet to materialize....

متن کاملIntermediate plasmonic characteristics in a quasi-continuous metallic monolayer
There has been a significant interest on plasmonics in a metallic structure with very narrow gaps for studies of nanophotonics. However, little attention has been paid to the behavior of surface plasmons (SPs) in quasi-continuous metallic structures. This study observes and analyzes intermediate characteristics between propagating SPs (PSPs) and localized SPs (LSPs) in a quasi-continuous metall...
متن کاملPlasmonic crystal defect nanolaser.
Surface plasmons are widely interesting due to their ability to probe nanoscale dimensions. To create coherent plasmons, we demonstrate a nanolaser based on a plasmonic bandgap defect state inside a surface plasmonic crystal. A one-dimensional semiconductor-based plasmonic crystal is engineered to have stopbands in which surface plasmons are prohibited from travelling in the crystalline structu...
