When the sizes of photonic nanoparticles are much smaller than the excitation wavelength, their optical response can be efficiently described with a series of polarizability tensors. Here, we propose a universal method to extract the…
This paper is concerned with efficient representations and approximations of the solution to the scattering problem by a system of strongly coupled plasmonic particles. Three schemes are developed: the first is the resonant expansion which…
We develop a theoretical formalism for collectively responding point scatterers where the radiating electromagnetic fields from each emitter are considered in the electric dipole, magnetic dipole, and electric quadrupole approximation. The…
The coherent exchange of optical near fields between two neighboring dipoles plays an essential role for the optical properties, quantum dynamics and thus for the function of many naturally occurring and artificial nanosystems. These…
We show how the elusive toroidal dipole moment appears as a radiative excitation eigenmode in a metamolecule resonator that is formed by pairs of plasmonic nanorods. We analyze one such nanorod configuration - a toroidal metamolecule. We…
We provide a self-consistent electromagnetic theory of the coupling between dipole emitters and dissipative nanoresonators. The theory that relies on the concept of quasi-normal modes with complex frequencies provides an accurate…
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,…
Plasmonic nanoresonators of core-shell composition and nanorod shape were optimized to tune their absorption cross-section maximum to the central wavelength of a short pulse. Their distribution along a pulse-length scaled target was…
Magnetic dipole (MD) transitions are intrinsically weak and highly sensitive to emitter orientation and position, making their controlled enhancement at optical frequencies particularly challenging. Here we show that structural symmetry…
We analyze the stability of super- and subradiant states in a system of identical two-level atoms in the near-Dicke limit, i.e., when the atoms are very close to each other compared to the wavelength of resonant light. The dynamics of the…
All-dielectric metamaterials consisting of high-dielectric inclusions in a low-dielectric matrix are considered as a low-loss alternative to resonant metal-based metamaterials. In this contribution we investigate the applicability of the…
Strong light-matter interactions facilitate not only emerging applications in quantum and non-linear optics but also modifications of materials properties. In particular the latter possibility has spurred the development of advanced…
Crystals of plasmonic metal nanoparticles have intriguing optical properties. They reach the regimes of ultrastrong and deep strong light-matter coupling, where the photonic states need to be included in the simulation of material…
The synthesis of metallic nanoparticle assemblies is nowadays well-controlled, such that these systems offer the possibility of controlling light at a sub-wavelength scale, thanks, for instance, to surface plasmons. Determining the energy…
Gold nanoparticle assemblies show a strong plasmonic response due to the combined effects of the individual nanoparticles' plasmon modes. Increasing the number of nanoparticles in structured assemblies leads to significant shifts in the…

We describe a simple yet rigorous theoretical model capable of analytical estimation of plasmonic field enhancement in complex metal structures. We show that one can treat the complex structures as coupled multi-pole modes with highest…
We develop a model for the coupling of quasi-normal modes in open photonic systems consisting of two resonators. By expressing the modes of the coupled system as a linear combination of the modes of the individual particles, we obtain a…
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…
We consider plasmonic metasurfaces constituted by an arbitrary periodic arrangement of spherical metallic nanoparticles. Each nanoparticle supports three degenerate dipolar localized surface plasmon (LSP) resonances. In the regime where the…
