It is shown that quantum effects play determining role in nitrogen adatom diffusion due to several different factors. This could be related to the change of the energy of the quantum states and also due to the redistribution of electrons…

Multiscale plasmonic systems e.g. extended metallic nanostructures with sub-nanometer inter-distances) play a key role in the development of next-generation nano-photonic devices. An accurate modeling of the optical interactions in these…
For distances less 10 nm, a total energy transfer occurs from a quantum emitter to a nearby metallic surface, producing evanescent surface waves that are plasmonic in nature. When investigating a metallic nanohole supported on an optically…
The near-field Coulomb interaction between a nano-emitter and a graphene monolayer results in strong F\"orster-type resonant energy transfer and subsequent fluorescence quenching. Here, we investigate the distance dependence of the energy…

We show that a graphene sheet perforated with micro- or nano-size antidots have prominent absorption resonances in the microwave and terahertz regions. These resonances correspond to surface plasmons of a continuous sheet "perturbed" by a…
We develop a unified theory of plasmon-assisted resonance energy transfer (RET) between molecules near a metal nanostructure that maintains energy balance between transfer, dissipation, and radiation. We show that in a wide range of…
We calculate the rate of non-radiative, Forster-type energy transfer (ET) from an excited epitaxial quantum well (QW) to a proximal monolayer of semiconductor nanocrystal quantum dots (QDs). Different electron-hole configurations in the QW…
