We theoretically and numerically investigate metal enhanced fluorescence of plasmonic core-shell nanoparticles doped with rare earth (RE) ions. Particle shape and size are engineered to maximize the average enhancement factor (AEF) of the…
Large scale simulations are performed by means of the transfer-matrix method to reveal optimal conditions for metal-dielectric core-shell particles to induce the largest fluorescence on their surfaces. With commonly used plasmonic cores (Au…
In this paper it is shown that the enhancement factor of the local electric field in metal covered ellipsoidal nanoparticles embedded in a dielectric host matrix has two maxima at two different frequencies. The second maximum for the metal…
The electromagnetic modes and their field distributions are evaluated for a dielectric cylindrical structure embedded in another dielectric, with a thin metallic film at the cylinder/dielectric interface. These modes provide energy…
Extreme field localization and giant field enhancement are often achieved by using plasmonic nanostructures and metamaterials such as strongly coupled silver nanoparticles.Dielectric particles and structures can focus light beyond the…
It is proposed and demonstrated that Q-factor of optical resonators can be significantly enhanced by introducing an extra anisotropic cladding. We study the optical resonances of all-dielectric core-shell nanoresonators and reveal that…
We investigate light scattering by coated spheres composed of a dispersive plasmonic core and a dielectric shell. By writing the absorption cross-section in terms of the internal electromagnetic fields, we demonstrate it is an observable…
Nano- and microparticles are popular media to enhance optical signals, including fluorescence from a dye proximal to the particle. Here we show that homogeneous, lossless, all-dielectric spheres with diameters in the mesoscale range,…

High quality factor dielectric cavities designed to a nanoscale accuracy are mostly used to increase the spontaneous emission rate of a single emitter. Here we show that the coupling, at room temperature, between thick shell CdSe/CdS…
Hybrid polymer-plasmonic nanostructures might combine high enhancement of localized fields from metal nanoparticles with light confinement and long-range transport in subwavelength dielectric structures. Here we report on the complex…
The problem of enhanced molecular emission in close proximity to dielectric and metallic interfaces is of great importance for many physical and biological applications. Here we present an exact treatment of the problem from the view point…
The photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) is relatively low, with various quenching effects by metallic species reported in the literature. Here, we report the first case of metal enhanced…
A novel concept of a \textit{mesocavity}, based on a simple yet counter-intuitive idea of covering metal nanoparticles with unusually thick ($\gtrsim 100$ nm) high-index dielectric shells, is demonstrated in technologically relevant and…
For an optically thick metallic film, the transmission for both s- and p-polarized waves is extremely low. If the metallic film is coated on both sides with a finite dielectric layer, light transmission for $p$-polarized waves can be…
Besides purely academic interest, giant field enhancement within subwavelength particles at light scattering of a plane electromagnetic wave is important for numerous applications ranging from telecommunications to medicine and biology. In…
Plasmonic antennas offer promising opportunities to control the emission of quantum objects. As a consequence, the fluorescence enhancement factor is widely used as a figure of merit for a practical antenna realization. However, the…

The fluorescence of organic fluorophore molecules is enhanced when they are placed in contact with certain metals (Al, Ag, Cu, Au, etc.) whose surface plasmon waves couple into the radiative modes of the molecules and increase the radiative…
