Plasmon oscillations have been intensively studied for more than forty years in conventional two-dimensional electron gas systems in order to find new alternatives to the vacuum devices based on the Smith-Purcell effect in the far-infrared…

Transparent conducting oxides (TCO) are emerging as possible alternative constituent materials to replace noble metals such as silver and gold for low-loss plasmonic and metamaterial (MMs) applications in the near infrared (NIR) regime. The…

Compared to single nanoparticles, strongly coupled plasmonic nanoparticles provide attractive advantages owing to their ability to exhibit multiple resonances with unique spectral features and higher local field intensity. These enhanced…

Lattice resonances are collective optical modes supported by periodic arrays of scatterers, arising from their coherent interaction enabled by the underlying periodicity. Owing to their collective nature, these resonances produce optical…

We present a theoretical framework for electromagnetic scattering by particles with a permittivity that is periodically varying in time, based on a perturbative approach. Within this framework, we derive explicit expressions for the…

We study a surface plasmon polariton mode that is strongly confined in the transverse direction and propagates along a periodically nanostructured metal-dielectric interface. We show that the wavelength of this mode is determined by the…

Photonic time-crystals (PTCs) are spatially-homogeneous media whose electromagnetic (EM) susceptibility varies periodically in time, causing temporal reflections and refractions for any wave propagating within the medium. The time-reflected…

Incorporating time-varying elements into electromagnetic systems has shown to be a powerful approach to challenge well-established performance limits, for example bounds on absorption and impedance matching. So far, the majority of these…

Wave reflection and refraction at a time interface follow different conservation laws compared to conventional scattering at a spatial interface. This study presents the experimental demonstration of refraction and reflection of flexural…

We explore the collective density oscillations of a collection of charged massive Dirac particles, in one, two and three dimensions and their one dimensional superlattice. We calculate the long wavelength limit of the dynamical polarization…

We investigate exemplary the longitudinal optical (LO) mode order in compounds with a plasmon or plasmon-like phonon mode and additional phonon modes. When the oscillator strength of the plasmon or plasmon-like mode is gradually increased,…
