We have obtained an analytical solution for the dispersion relation of the light field modes in the nanowaveguide structure. The solution has been analyzed for the planar waveguide with metamaterial claddings and dielectric core. The…
Investigation of light in the waveguide structures is a topical modern problem that has long historical roots. A parallel-plate waveguide is a base model in these studies and it is intensively used in numerous investigations of nanooptics,…
We study the anomalous electromagnetic scattering in the homogenization regime, by a subwavelength thin layer of periodically distributed plasmonic nanoparticles on a perfect conducting plane. By using layer potential techniques, we derive…
Surface plasmon polaritons enable light concentration within subwavelength regions, opening thereby new avenues for miniaturizing the device and strengthening light-matter interactions. Here we realize effective electro-optic modulation in…
Dye-doped hybrid silicate/titanium nanofilms on the glass substrate in the structure of asymmetrical waveguides were studied as the laser system. The spatial and spectral features of laser oscillation of genuine and hollow waveguides were…
Optical plasmon-polariton modes confined in both transverse dimensions to significantly less than a wavelength are exhibited in open waveguides structured as sharp metal wedges. The analysis reveals two distinctive modes corresponding to a…
Recently the new method of the Cherenkov fields and loss factors of a point-like electron bunch passing through longitudinally homogeneous structures lined with arbitrary slowdown layers was proposed. It was shown that the Cherenkov loss…
Metamaterials, which are materials engineered to possess novel optical properties, have been increasingly studied. The ability to fabricate metamaterials has sparked an interest in determining possible applications. We investigate using a…
Coupled plasmon modes are studied in graded plasmonic waveguides, which are periodic chains of metallic nanoparticles embedded in a host with gradually varying refractive indices. We identify three types of localized modes called "light",…
Laser science has tackled physical limitations to achieve higher power, faster and smaller light sources. The quest for ultra-compact laser that can directly generate coherent optical fields at the nano-scale, far beyond the diffraction…
We demonstrate edge-emitting exciton-polariton (polariton) lasing from 5 to 300 K and amplification of non-radiative guided polariton modes within ZnO waveguides. The mode dispersion below and above the lasing threshold is directly measured…
Here we discuss the theory and analyze in detail the guidance properties of linear arrays of metamaterial/plasmonic small particles as nano-scale optical nanotransmission lines, including the effect of material loss. Under the assumption of…
The dispersion relations for surface plasmon-polaritons propagating in the Voigt geometry in a metal-insulator-metal waveguide with a magneto-optically active dielectric medium are derived. The symmetry between the upper and lower…
We study the physics of a new type of subwavelength nanocavities. They are based on U-shaped metal-insulator-metal waveguides supporting the excitation of surface plasmon polaritons. The waveguides are simultaneously excited from both sides…
We theoretically propose directional, low-threshold plasmon lasing in both the near-infrared and visible wavelengths by utilizing spatially coherent surface plasmon polaritons on a meta-surface. The gain strength required for threshold…
It is demonstrated that a new kind of low-loss surface electromagnetic wave may propagate along a planar surface inside a lossy medium if the medium permittivity changes continuously across such surface. Similar to surface plasmons, the…
We characterize surface-plasmon polaritons at lossy planar interfaces between one dispersive and one nondispersive linear isotropic homogeneous media, i.e., materials or metamaterials. Specifically we solve Maxwell's equations to obtain…
We present a plasmonic waveguide where light pulses are stopped at well-accessed complex-frequency zero-group-velocity points. Introducing gain at such points results in cavity-free, "thresholdless" nanolasers beating the diffraction limit…
Lasing at the nanometre scale promises strong light-matter interactions and ultrafast operation. Plasmonic resonances supported by metallic nanoparticles have extremely small mode volumes and high field enhancements, making them an ideal…
We study the interaction of focused radially-polarized light with metal nanospheres. By expanding the electromagnetic field in terms of multipoles, we gain insight on the excitation of localized surface plasmon-polariton resonances in the…
