Surface Plasmon-Coupled Enhanced Transmission
For distances less 10 nm, a total energy transfer occurs from a quantum emitter to a nearby metallic surface, producing evanescent surface waves that are plasmonic in nature. When investigating a metallic nanohole supported on an optically dense substrate (such as diamond with NV-), the scattering occurred preferentially from the diamond substrate towards the air for dipole distances less 10 nm...
متن کاملPlasmon-coupled tip-enhanced near-field optical microscopy.
Near the cut-off radius of a guided waveguide mode of a metal-coated glass fibre tip it is possible to couple radiation to surface plasmons propagating on the outside surface of the metal coating. These surface plasmons converge toward the apex of the tip and interfere constructively for particular polarization states of the initial waveguide mode. Calculations show that a radially polarized wa...
متن کاملImaging slit-coupled surface plasmon polaritons using conventional optical microscopy.
We develop a technique that now enables surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) coupled by nano-patterned slits in a metal film to be detected using conventional optical microscopy with standard objective lenses. The crux of this method is an ultra-thin polymer layer on the metal surface, whose thickness can be varied over a nanoscale range to enable controllable tuning of the SPP momentum. At an opt...
متن کاملTime-resolved surface plasmon polariton coupled exciton and biexciton emission.
We discuss the coupling between optically excited semiconductor nanocrystals (NC) and thin metal films in both the single and multi-exciton regime. Using time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy, we determine the decay dynamics of free space and surface plasmon polariton (SPP) coupled emission. The two dynamics are found to be distinctly different at very small NC-metal separations and at p...
متن کاملApplication of surface plasmon coupled emission to study of muscle.
Muscle contraction results from interactions between actin and myosin cross-bridges. Dynamics of this interaction may be quite different in contracting muscle than in vitro because of the molecular crowding. In addition, each cross-bridge of contracting muscle is in a different stage of its mechanochemical cycle, and so temporal measurements are time averages. To avoid complications related to ...
