We develop a quantum-mechanical theory for Landau damping of surface plasmons in metal nanostructures larger that the characteristic length for nonlocal effects. We show that the electron surface scattering, which facilitates plasmon decay…

The lifetime of localized surface plasmon plays an important role in many aspects of plasmonics and its applications. In small metal nanostructures, the dominant mechanism restricting plasmon lifetime is size-dependent Landau damping. We…

Bosonic collective modes are ubiquitous in metals, but over a wide range of energy and momenta suffer from Landau damping, decaying into the continuum of particle-hole excitations. Here we point out that interactions can suppress this…

Properties of plasmonic materials are associated with surface plasmons - the electromagnetic excitations coupled to coherent electron charge density oscillations on a metal/dielectric interface. Although decay of such oscillations cannot be…

We show that electric field confinement in surface plasmon polaritons propagating at the metal/dielectric interfaces enhances the loss due to Landau damping and which effectively limits the degree of confinement itself. We prove that Landau…

Transient absorption in plasmonic materials has recently attracted attention of the chemistry and optics communities as a technique to understand dynamic processes and hot carriers generation on ultrafast timescales. In this context, hybrid…

Assemblies of plasmonic nanoparticles (NPs) support hybridized modes of localized surface plasmons (LSPs), which delocalize in geometrically well-ordered arrangements. Here, the hybridization behavior of LSPs in geometrically completely…

Surface plasmons in 2-dimensional electron systems with narrow Bloch bands feature an interesting regime in which Landau damping (dissipation via electron-hole pair excitation) is completely quenched. This surprising behavior is made…

Transverse and longitudinal dielectric permittivity elements are derived for radio frequency waves in a laboratory dipole magnetic field plasma (LDMFP) accounting for the finite ring current radius. The main feature of LDMFP is the fact…

The hot electron generation in plasmonic nanoparticles is the key to efficient plasmonic photocatalysis. In the paper, we study theoretically for the first time the effect of Tamm states (TSs) at the interface metal-semiconductor on hot…

We have investigated the plasmonic enhancement of the radiation field at various nanostructured multilayer devices, that may be applied in surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy. We apply an image dipole method to describe the effect of…

Full ranges of both hybrid plasmon-mode dispersions and their damping are studied systematically by our recently developed mean-field theory in open systems involving a conducting substrate and a two-dimensional (2D) material with a buckled…

We perform fully kinetic simulations of flows known to produce dynamo in magnetohydrodynamics (MHD), considering scenarios with low Reynolds number and high magnetic Prandtl number, relevant for galaxy cluster scale fluctuation dynamos. We…

We develop a general quantum theory of the coupled plasmonic modes resulting from the near-field interaction between localized surface plasmons in a heterogeneous metallic nanoparticle dimer. In particular, we provide analytical expressions…

The rate of linear collisionless damping (Landau damping) in a classical electron gas confined to a heated ionized thin film is calculated. The general expression for the imaginary part of the dielectric tensor in terms of the parameters of…

We present an ab-initio study of the hybridization of localized surface plasmons in a metal nanoparticle dimer. The atomic structure, which is often neglected in theoretical studies of quantum nanoplasmonics, has a strong impact on the…

We present a quantum-mechanical model for surface-assisted carrier excitation by optical fields in plasmonic nanostructures of arbitrary shape. We derive an explicit expression, in terms of local fields inside the metal structure, for…

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…

Plasma turbulence plays a critical role in the transport of energy from large-scale magnetic fields and plasma flows to small scales, where the dissipated turbulent energy ultimately leads to heating of the plasma species. A major goal of…

Two possible mechanisms of surface plasmon (SP) oscillations damping in metallic nanoparticles (MNPs), not connected with electron-phonon interaction are investigated theoretically: a) the radiation damping of SP, b) resonant coupling of SP…
