Abstract

A detailed analysis of the optical response of a system accommodating several coupled modes is needed for the complete understanding of the strong coupling effect. In this paper, we report on the analysis of scattering cross section spectra of Au antennas on a SiO2_{2} layer on a Si substrate in the IR region. A classical model of coupled oscillators is used for determining the resonant energies, damping rates and coupling strengths of four phonon polariton modes in the SiO2_{2} layer coupled to a localized surface plasmon mode in a Au antenna. The calculated Hopfield mixing coefficients then show the contribution of the individual uncoupled modes to the hybrid modes of the coupled system.
