The hotspots, which are typically found in nanogaps between metal structures, are critical for the enhancement of the electromagnetic field. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), a technique known for its exceptional sensitivity and…
The plasmon coupling in a nanorod dimer obeys the exponential size dependence according to the Universal Plasmon Ruler Equation. However, it was shown recently that such a model does not hold at short nanorod distance (Nano Lett. 2009, 9,…
The influence of the orientation of gold nanorods in different assemblies has been investigated using the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) simulation method. To understand the relative orientation, we vary the size and angle in dimer…
High-order optical vortices are inherently unstable, as they tend to split up under perturbation to a series of vortices with unity charge. Control over the perturbation opens up a new degree of freedom to control and tune their location in…
The phenomenon of a dispersion bandgap opening between low-loss spectral windows of odd and even plasmonic modes in a layered insulator-metal-insulator plasmonic waveguide is introduced. Beginning with a three layer plasmonic dispersion…
Nanostructured metal surfaces comprised of periodically arranged spherical voids are grown by electrochemical deposition through a self-assembled template. Detailed measurements of the angle- and orientation-dependent reflectivity reveal…

Plasmonic nanoarrays which support collective surface lattice resonances (SLRs) have become an exciting frontier in plasmonics. Compared with the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in individual particles, these collective modes…

Periodic arrays of metallic nanoparticles may sustain Surface Lattice Resonances (SLRs), which are collective resonances associated with the diffractive coupling of Localized Surface Plasmon Resonances (LSPRs). By investigating a series of…
A plasmonic nanostructure conceived with periodic layers of a doped semiconductor and passive semiconductor is shown to generate spontaneously surface plasmon polaritons thanks to its periodic nature. The nanostructure is demonstrated to…
We investigate a short (~1.5{\mu}m) partially-corrugated tapered waveguide structure for mode coupling from a silicon micro-slab to a plasmonic nano-gap waveguide at the optical communication frequency. More than 80% transmission efficiency…
The precise control of nanogaps is crucial for plasmonic nanoassemblies, where plasmon hybridization is highly sensitive to gap size and geometry. This sensitivity enables fine-tuning of the resonance wavelength and near-field enhancement,…
The spectral response of a plasmonic nanostructure may heavily depend on the refractive index of its surroundings. The key idea of this paper is to control this response by coherent optical means, i.e. with an optically controlled…
Nanoplasmonics exploits the coupling between light and collective electron density oscillations (plasmons) to bypass the stringent limits imposed by diffraction. This coupling enables confinement of light to sub-wavelength volumes and is…
Two-dimensional double nanoparticles (DNPs) arrays are demonstrated theoretically supporting the interaction of out-of-plane magnetic plasmons and in-plane lattice resonances, which can be achieved by tuning the nanoparticle height or the…
