Steady-state plasmonic lasing is studied theoretically for a system consisting of many dye molecules arranged regularly around a gold nano-sphere. A three-level model with realistic molecular dissipation is employed to analyze the…
We predict collective 'free-space' lasing in a dense nanoscopic emitter arrangement where dipole-dipole coupled atomic emitters synchronize their emission and exhibit lasing behavior without the need for an optical resonator. At the example…
We demonstrate theoretically that a subwavelength spherical dielectric nanoparticle coated with a gain shell forms a nanolaser. Lasing modes of such a nanolaser are associated with the Mie resonances of the nanoparticle. We establish a…
We study the effect of off-resonant plasmon modes on spaser threshold in nanoparticle-based spasers. We develop an analytical semiclassical model and derive spaser threshold condition accounting for gain coupling to higher-order plasmons.…
Dynamic control of laser emission direction is crucial for developing compact and reconfigurable nanophotonic devices. In this work, we numerically present a plasmonic nanolaser (PNL) integrated with a voltage-controlled liquid crystal (LC)…
Spasers have been theoretically predicted and experimentally observed and promise to deliver new exciting nanophotonic and biomedical applications. Here we theoretically investigate ultrafast dynamical properties of spasers with external…
Nanoplasmonics has recently experienced explosive development with many novel ideas and dramatic achievements in both fundamentals and applications. The spaser has been predicted and observed experimentally as an active element -- generator…
A quantum-mechanical model to calculate the electron energy-loss spectra (EELS) for the system of a closely located metallic nanoshell and a molecule has been developed. At the resonance between the molecular excitation and plasmon modes in…
Plasmonic nanolasers have ultrahigh lasing thresholds, especially those devices for which all three dimensions are truly subwavelength. Because of a momentum mismatch between the propagating light and localized optical field of the…
This work presents an experimental study of a nanosecond repetitively pulsed dielectric barrier discharge interacting with a transient laminar flame propagating in a channel of height near the quenching distance of the flame. The discharge…
Near-field coupling between nanolasers enables collective high-power lasing but leads to complex spectral reshaping and multimode operation, limiting the emission brightness, spatial coherence and temporal stability. Many lasing…
Because surface plasmons can be confined below the diffraction limit, metallic lasers that support plasmonic modes can provide miniaturized sources of electromagnetic waves. Such devices often exploit a multilayer design, in which a…
We present a unified approach to describe spasing in plasmonic systems modeled by quantum emitters interacting with resonant plasmon mode. We show that spaser threshold implies detailed energy transfer balance between the gain and plasmon…
Plasmonic nanoparticles resonantly couple to and confine light below the diffraction limit. This mechanism has enabled a modern renaissance in optical materials, with potential applications ranging from sensing and circuitry to renewable…
Plasmonic resonances enable strong electromagnetic field confinement and have been widely exploited in plasmonic nanolasers, particularly through surface plasmon polaritons and localized surface plasmons. However, their performance is often…
At the plasmon resonance, high Joule losses in a metal nanoparticle of a spaser result in its low Q-factor. Due to the latter, to achieve the spasing regime, in which the number of coherent plasmons exceeds the number of incoherent…
We study the effect of the electromagnetic environment on the resonance frequency of plasmonic excitations in dimers of interacting metallic nanoparticles. The coupling between plasmons and vacuum electromagnetic fluctuations induces a…
We theoretically study a nanospaser system, which consists of a spherical silver nanoparticle embedded inside a sphere composed of dye molecules. The gain of the system, dye molecules, are described by a three-level model, where the…
Active core-shell nanoresonators were designed in order to achieve large near-field enhancement, large power-outflow and minimal spaser threshold in the pump E-field strength. Gain-metal-dielectric (GMD) and gain-metal-gain (GMG)…
