This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Les nanostructures métalliques permettent de confiner la lumière à des échelles sub-longueur d'onde grâce à l'excitation de plasmons de surface. Elles ouvrent la voie à de nombreuses applications que ce soit en imagerie, en élaboration de composants photoniques ou en information quantique. Cette thèse porte sur l'étude de nanostructures métalliques, semi-continues ou constituées par des réseaux de trous au désordre contrôlé, et à leur interaction avec des nanocristaux semi-conducteurs colloïdaux particulièrement photostables. En associant plusieurs approches expérimentales complémentaires (spectroscopie en champ lointain, microscopie de champ proche optique, microscopie avec une sonde active de champ proche, caractérisation par microscopie confocale de l'émission de nanocristaux couplés aux surfaces métalliques), nous avons pu mettre en évidence les caractéristiques spécifiques des modes plasmons de ces différentes structures. Pour les réseaux au désordre contrôlé, nous avons en particulier analysé l'apparition progressive de modes localisés intenses et déterminé l'influence de paramètres tels que l'épaisseur de la couche d'or, le diamètre des trous ou la périodicité initiale du réseau. Les résultats expérimentaux obtenus se sont révélés en très bon accord avec les simulations numériques réalisées par FDTD.

The excitation of SPs in metal nanostructures enables the manipulation of light beyond the diffraction limit, which can be utilized for enhancing and tailoring light-matter interactions and developing ultra-compact high-performance nanophotonic devices for various applications. With clear and understandable illustrations, tables, and descriptions, this book provides physicists, materials scientists, chemists, engineers, and their students with a fundamental understanding of surface plasmons and device applications as a basis for future developments.
Download or read book Collective Plasmon Modes in Gain Media written by V.A.G. Rivera and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-09-03 with total page 147 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book represents the first detailed description, including both theoretical aspects and experimental methods, of the interaction of rare-earth ions with surface plasmon polariton from the point of view of collective plasmon-photon interactions via resonance modes (metal nanoparticles or nanostructure arrays) with quantum emitters (rare-earth ions). These interactions are of particular interest for applications to optical telecommunications, optical displays, and laser solid state technologies. Thus, our main goal is to give a more precise overview of the rapidly emerging field of nanophotonics by means of the study of the quantum properties of light interaction with matter at the nanoscale. In this way, collective plasmon-modes in a gain medium result from the interaction/coupling between a quantum emitter (created by rare-earth ions) with a metallic surface, inducing different effects such as the polarization of the metal electrons (so-called surface plasmon polariton - SPP), a field enhancement sustained by resonance coupling, or transfer of energy due to non-resonant coupling between the metallic nanostructure and the optically active surrounding medium. These effects counteract the absorption losses in the metal to enhance luminescence properties or even to control the polarization and phase of quantum emitters. The engineering of plasmons/SPP in gain media constitutes a new field in nanophotonics science with a tremendous technological potential in integrated optics/photonics at the nanoscale based on the control of quantum effects. This book will be an essential tool for scientists, engineers, and graduate and undergraduate students interested not only in a new frontier of fundamental physics, but also in the realization of nanophotonic devices for optical telecommunication.

Download or read book Towards Integrated Optics at the Nanoscale written by Nancy Rahbany and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a growing interest nowadays in the study of strong light-matter interaction at the nanoscale, specifically between plasmons and emitters. Researchers in the fields of plasmonics, nanooptics and nanophotonics are constantly exploring new ways to control and enhance surface plasmon launching, propagation, and localization. Moreover, emitters placed in the vicinity of metallic nanoantennas exhibit a fluorescence rate enhancement due to the increase in the electromagnetic field confinement. However, numerous applications such as optical electronics, nanofabrication and sensing devices require a very high optical resolution which is limited by the diffraction limit. Targeting this problem, we introduce a novel plasmonic structure consisting of nanoantennas integrated in the center of ring diffraction gratings. Propagating surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are generated by the ring grating and couple with localized surface plasmons (LSPs) at the nanoantennas exciting emitters placed in the gap. We provide a thorough characterization of the optical properties of the simple ring grating structure, the double bowtie nanoantenna, and the integrated ring grating/nanoantenna structure, and study the coupling with an ensemble of molecules as well as single SiV centers in diamond. The combination of the sub-wavelength confinement of LSPs and the high energy of SPPs in our structure leads to precise nanofocusing at the nanoscale, which can be implemented to study plasmon-emitter coupling in the weak and strong coupling regimes.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nanoplasmonics is a young topic of research, which is part of nanophotonics and nano-optics. Nanoplasmonics concerns to the investigation of electron oscillations in metallic nanostructures and nanoparticles. Surface plasmons have optical properties, which are very interesting. For instance, surface plasmons have the unique capacity to confine light at the nanoscale. Moreover, surface plasmons are very sensitive to the surrounding medium and the properties of the materials on which they propagate. In addition to the above, the surface plasmon resonances can be controlled by adjusting the size, shape, periodicity, and materials' nature. All these optical properties can enable a great number of applications, such as biosensors, optical modulators, photodetectors, and photovoltaic devices. This book is intended for a broad audience and provides an overview of some of the fundamental knowledges and applications of nanoplasmonics.
