Plasmon Polariton

Surface plasmon polariton (SPP) waves exhibit local characteristics that can break diffraction limits; for this reason, the production of subwavelength optoelectronic device has been the focus of current studies. To determine the importance of surface plasmon wave applications, we aim to investigate whether or not the theoretical dispersion obtained in the plasma and metal (Drude model) exhibits the same expression, satisfy the relationship of SPPs by controlling the electron density of the plasma and the frequency of the incident electromagnetic wave, and derive the system performance parameters and plasma density parameters by changing the grating geometry and dielectric constant of the surrounding medium by using the grating structure based on surface plasmon propagation characteristics associated with sensor research. The simulation results of then design structure showed that transmission bandwidth rapidly decreases and transmission peak gradually decreases as metal dielectric thickness decreases. An SPP sensor can effectively eliminate light instability in the two wavelengths of light intensity difference to obtain anti-interference and improve the range of the measuring instrument by using two fiber-grating structure filters. Therefore, studies on surface plasmon devices for integrated application are of promotional importance.

AbstractPlasmonics offers a unique opportunity to break the diffraction limit of light and bring photonic devices to the nanoscale. As the most prominent example, an integrated nanolaser is a key to truly nanoscale photonic circuits required for optical communication, sensing applications and high-density data storage. Here, we develop a concept of an electrically driven subwavelength surface-plasmon-polariton nanolaser, which is based on a novel amplification scheme, with all linear dimensions smaller than the operational free-space wavelength λ and a mode volume of under λ3/30. The proposed pumping approach is based on a double-heterostructure tunneling Schottky barrier diode and gives the possibility to reduce the physical size of the device and ensure in-plane emission so that the nanolaser output can be naturally coupled to a plasmonic or nanophotonic waveguide circuitry. With the high energy efficiency (8% at 300 K and 37% at 150 K), the output power of up to 100 μW and the ability to operate at room temperature, the proposed surface plasmon polariton nanolaser opens up new avenues in diverse application areas, ranging from ultrawideband optical communication on a chip to low-power nonlinear photonics, coherent nanospectroscopy, and single-molecule biosensing.

AbstractPlasmonic nanostructures have garnered tremendous interest in enhanced light–matter interaction because of their unique capability of extreme field confinement in nanoscale, especially beneficial for boosting the photoluminescence (PL) signals of weak light–matter interaction materials such as transition metal dichalcogenides atomic crystals. Here we report the surface plasmon polariton (SPP)-assisted PL enhancement of MoS2 monolayer via a suspended periodic metallic (SPM) structure. Without involving metallic nanoparticle–based plasmonic geometries, the SPM structure can enable more than two orders of magnitude PL enhancement. Systematic analysis unravels the underlying physics of the pronounced enhancement to two primary plasmonic effects: concentrated local field of SPP enabled excitation rate increment (45.2) as well as the quantum yield amplification (5.4 times) by the SPM nanostructure, overwhelming most of the nanoparticle-based geometries reported thus far. Our results provide a powerful way to boost two-dimensional exciton emission by plasmonic effects which may shed light on the on-chip photonic integration of 2D materials.
