Abstract We theoretically demonstrated a kind of plasmon coupled elliptical nanostructure to achieve a vast range of applications based on nanolaser or spaser with high intensity. To overcome the ohmic losses, the plasmon ellipse is composed of the gold film substrate with a gain media. A simple ellipse has been chosen from which variety of dimer configurations have been formed by symmetry alteration technique which are then tested for different light polarizations and gap variations. The proposed model supports localized surface plasmon resonance mode (LSPR). Moreover, the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) property of the proposed nanostructure is numerically analysed by the finite-element method (FEM) and the results shows that the electric field intensity (EFI) can be amplified to a large values by symmetry breaking in the elliptical nanostructure. Various plasmon modes can be excited by selecting the appropriate gain media. In addition to this, a compact tunable multi-wavelength nanolaser (spaser) can be developed by using this model. Giant near field enhancement (NFE) and high LSPR enable this structure to be promising for spaser applications such as surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy, sensing, lithography, imaging, dental applications and much more.

AbstractLocalized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) was performed in the deep ultraviolet (UVC) region with Al nanohemisphere structures fabricated by means of a simple method using a combination of vapor deposition, sputtering, and thermal annealing without top-down nanofabrication technology such as electron beam lithography. The LSPR in the UV region was obtained and tuned by the initial metal film thickness, annealing temperature, and dielectric spacer layer thickness. Moreover, we achieved a flexible tuning of the LSPR in a much deeper UVC region below 200 nm using a nanohemisphere on a mirror (NHoM) structure. NHoM is a structure in which a metal nanohemisphere is formed on a metal substrate that is interposed with an Al2O3 thin film layer. In the experimental validation, Al and Ga were used for the metal hemispheres. The LSPR spectrum of the NHoM structures was split into two peaks, and the peak intensities were enhanced and sharpened. The shorter branch of the LSPR peak appeared in the UVC region below 200 nm. Both the peak intensities and linewidth were flexibly tuned by the spacer thickness. This structure can contribute to new developments in the field of deep UV plasmonics.
