We describe a new type of spatially periodic structure (lattice models): a polaritonic crystal (PolC) formed by a two-dimensional lattice of trapped two-level atoms interacting with quantised electromagnetic field in a cavity (or in a…

Plasmonic lattices consisting of nanoparticles in a homogeneous environment are well known fortheir support of so-called lattice plasmon resonances. They are associated with localized surfaceplasmons coupled to each other via free…

Strong coupling between molecules and quantized fields has emerged as an effective methodology to engineer molecular properties. New hybrid states are formed when molecules interact with quantized fields. Since the properties of these…

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…

Magneto optical activity implemented in plasmonic nanostructures provides a new functionality in active plasmonics. To what an extent, one can benefit from this new degree of freedom is still under open discussion. In this work, with the…

We study the mutual interaction between two identical quantum dots coupled to the normal modes of two-site photonic crystal molecules in a planar waveguide geometry, i.e. photonic crystal dimers. We find that the radiative coupling between…

We predict the existence of surface plasmons polaritons at the interface between a metal and a periodically modulated dielectric medium, and find an unusual multi-branched dispersion curve of surface and bulk modes. The branches are…

We show unusual cooperative two-photon resonance between two-modes of field inside a photonic crystal cavity. The two-photon resonance occurs when two off resonant quantum dots emit one photon in each cavity mode and de-excite…

Non-invasive optical manipulation of particles has emerged as a powerful and versatile tool for biological study and nanotechnology. In particular, trapping and rotation of cells, cell nuclei and sub-micron particles enables unique…

A symmetrical structure consisting of a low refractive index dielectric layer between two metallic films, i.e. an optical cavity, surrounded by a semi-infinite dielectric medium of higher refractive index, forms an optical system capable of…

Noble metal nanoparticles show specific optical properties due to the excitation of localized surface plasmons that make them attractive candidates for highly sensitive bionanosensors. The underlying physical principle is either an…

We report that nacre (also known as mother-of-pearl), a wondrous nanocomposite found in nature, is a rich photonic nanomaterial allowing the experimental realization of collective excitation and light amplification via coupled states.…

Trapping light in open cavities is a long sought "holy grail" of nanophotonics. Plasmonic materials may offer a unique opportunity in this context, as they may fully suppress the radiation loss and enable the observation of spatially…

Tight confinement of light in photonic cavities provides an efficient template for the realization of high optical intensity with strong field gradients. Here we present such a nanoscale resonator device based on a one-dimensional photonic…

A phononic crystal formed in a suspended membrane provides full confinement of hypersonic waves and thus realizes a range of chip-scale manipulations. In this letter, we demonstrate the mode-resolved real-space characterization of the…

We put forward the concept of an optomagnonic crystal: a periodically patterned structure at the microscale based on a magnetic dielectric, which can co-localize magnon and photon modes. The co-localization in small volumes can result in…

In nanostructure electronic devices, it is well-known that the optical lattice waves in the constituent semiconductor crystals have to obey both mechanical and electrical boundary conditions at an interface. The theory of hybrid optical…

The ability to actively tune the properties of a nanocavity is crucial for future applications in photonics and quantum information. Two important man-made classes of materials have emerged to mold the flow of electromagnetic waves.…

Canonical Four-Wave-Mixing occurs in a resonator with only the required number of modes, thereby inhibiting competing parametric processes. The properties of the recently introduced photonic crystal parametric oscillator, Marty et al. Nat.…

We investigate the collective plasmonic modes of metal nano-particles in periodic two-dimensional (2D) arrays within a point-dipole description. As an open system, the full-dynamic dispersion relations of the 2D arrays are obtained through…
