We demonstrate that the emission of light by fluorescent molecules in the proximity of periodic arrays of nanoantennas or plasmonic crystals can be strongly modified when the arrays are covered by a dielectric film. The coupling between…
We use spatially and angle-resolved cathodoluminescence imaging spectroscopy to study, with deep subwavelength resolution, the radiation mechanism of single plasmonic ridge antennas with lengths ranging from 100 to 2000 nm. We measure the…
Nanoantenna is one of the most important optical components for light harvesting. In this study, we show experimental evidence of interactions between coupled nanowires by comparing the fluorescence properties of quantum dots on both…
Visible and infrared photons can be detected with a broadband response via the internal photoeffect. By using plasmonic nanostructures, i.e. nanoantennas, wavelength selectivity can be introduced to such detectors through geometry-dependent…
The study of optical phenomena on the subwavelength scale is becoming increasingly important in photonics, particularly in the fields of nanoemitters, photonic crystals and plasmonics. Subwavelength field patterns are evanescent and must…
An effective approach to improve the detection efficiency of nanoscale light sources relies on a planar antenna configuration, which beams the emitted light into a narrow cone. Planar antennas operate like optical Yagi-Uda antennas, where…
We demonstrate theoretically and experimentally that the three-dimensional orientation of a single fluorescent nano-emitter can be determined by polarization analysis of the emitted light (while excitation polarization analysis provides…
A novel miniaturized printed folded dipole antenna has been designed for narrowband sensing applications. It is shown that the antenna may be systematically engineered to achieve matching to a practical source impedance at frequencies well…
Light localization is controlled at a scale of lambda/10 in the harmonic regime from the far field domain in a plasmonic nanoantenna. The nanoantenna under study consists of 3 aligned spheres 50 nm in diameter separated by a distance of 5…
Cathodoluminescence, i.e. the radiation caused by the interaction of high-energy electron beams with matter, has gained a major interest in the analysis of minerals, semiconductors, and plasmonic resonances in nanoparticles. This radiation…
The spectral characteristics of near-field thermal emission from nanoparticle arrays are explained by comparison to the dispersions for propagating modes. Using the coupled dipole model, we analytically calculate the spectral emission from…
In this work, we demonstrate trapping of microparticles using a plasmonic tweezers based on arrays of annular apertures. The transmission spectra and the E- field distribution are simulated to calibrate the arrays. Theoretically, we observe…
Superconducting nanowire single photon detectors are rapidly emerging as a key infrared photon-counting technology. Two front-side-coupled silver dipole nanoantennas, simulated to have resonances at 1480 nm and 1525 nm, were fabricated in a…
Single emitters have been considered as sources of single photons in various contexts such as cryptography, quantum computation, spectroscopy, and metrology. The success of these applications will crucially rely on the efficient directional…
We present detector characterization of a state-of-the-art near-infrared (950nm - 1650 nm) Discrete Avalanche Photodiode detector (NIRDAPD) 5x5 array. We designed an experimental setup to characterize the NIRDAPD dark count rate, photon…

Polynorbornene-based decomposable polymer which can be patterned with ultraviolet or electron-beam radiation is used to create micrometer-scale fluidic channels. Silicon nitride substrates are used to fabricate nanophotonic wavegide and…
A Yagi-Uda-like optical nanoantenna concept using resonant core-shell plasmonic particles as its "reflectors" and "directors" is studied numerically. Such particles when placed near an optical dipole source in a certain arrangement may…
Biosensing with ferromagnet-based magnetoresistive devices has been dominated by electrical detection of particle-induced changes to the devices' static magnetic configuration. There are however potential advantages to be gained from using…
Engineering optical emission from two dimensional, transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) materials such as Tungsten disulphide (WS2) has implications in creating and understanding nanophotonic sources. One of the challenges in controlling…
