The formation of pulses of surface electromagnetic waves in a metal/dielectric interface is considered in the process of cooperative decay of excitons of quantum dots distributed near a metal surface in a dielectric layer. It is shown that…

We show that the dynamics of the surface plasmon in metallic nanoparticles damped by its interaction with particle-hole excitations can be modelled by a single degree of freedom coupled to an environment. In this approach, the fast decrease…

We introduce two types of toroidal metamaterials which are invisible to surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) propagating on a metal surface. The former is a toroidal handlebody bridging remote holes on the metal surface: It works as a kind of…

Collective electronic excitations at metal surfaces are well known to play a key role in a wide spectrum of science, ranging from physics and materials science to biology. Here we focus on a theoretical description of the many-body…

Plasmons in low-dimensional systems respresent an important tool for coupling energy into nanostructures and the localization of energy on the scale of only a few nanometers. Contrary to ordinary surface plasmons of metallic bulk materials,…

Using interplay between surface plasmons and metamaterials, we propose a new technique for novel metamaterial designs. We show that surface plasmons existing on thin metal surfaces can be used to "drive" non-resonant structures in their…

Surface plasmons polaritons were thought to exist only in metals near their plasma frequencies. The concept of spoof plasmons extended the realms of plasmonics to domains such as radio frequencies, magnetism, or even acoustic waves. Here,…

The surface plasmon oscillations spectra in noble metal nanoparticles - rods and spheroids embedded in a host matrix is analyzed theoretically. The important role of - electrons in formation of surface plasmon resonances is shown. A simple…

Localized surface plasmons are confined collective oscillations of electrons in metallic nanoparticles. When driven by light, the optical response is dictated by geometrical parameters and the dielectric environment and plasmons are…

The role of surface collective excitations in the electron relaxation in small metal particles is studied. It is shown that the dynamically screened electron-electron interaction in a nanoparticle contains a size-dependent correction…

We investigate theoretically and numerically the coupling between elastic and localized surface plasmon modes in a system of gold nanocylinders separated from a thin gold film by a dielectric spacer of few nanometers thickness. That system…

We consider the linear and nonlinear models of generation of the surface plasmon-polaritons on the boundary of nonmagnetic dielectric medium and nonmagnetic metal. We have shown how the three-dimensional incident wave is transformed to the…

Surface plasmon polaritons propagating along curved metal-dielectric interfaces experience geometry-induced modifications absent on flat surfaces. In this work, we derive a covariant, effective two-dimensional wave equation for the…

The possibility to excite Surface Plasmon Polaritons (SPPs) at the interface between two media depends on the optical properties of both media and geometrical aspects. Specific conditions allowing the coupling of light with a plasmon-active…

Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) are optical waves that propagate along a metal surface. They exhibit properties such as sub-wavelength localization and field enhancement which make them attractive for surface sensing, as commonly…

We study an optical response of a system of two parallel close metallic cylinders having nanoscale dimensions. Surface plasmon excitation in the gap between the cylinders are specifically analyzed. In particular, resonance frequencies and…

Surface plasmon resonances of metallic nanostructures offer great opportunities to guide and manipulate light on the nanoscale. In the design of novel plasmonic devices, a central topic is to clarify the intricate relationship between the…

Surface and volume plasmons excited in a metal cluster by moving electron and corresponding inelastic scattering spectra are studied based on the hydrodynamic approach. Along with the bulk losses traditionally taken into account, the…

The properties of surface plasmons localized at the interface between graphene and kerr-type nonlinear medium in three dimensions are investigated. Compared with surface plasmons at the surface of metal, with the inevitable nonlinear…

Plasmon modes of a two-dimensional lattice of long conducting circular wires are investigated by using an embedding technique to solve Maxwell's equations rigorously. The frequency-dependent density of states is calculated for various…
