Few-Cycle Surface Plasmon Polariton Generation by Rotating Wavefront Pulses
A concept for the efficient generation of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) with ultrashort duration close to the single-cycle limit is presented. The scheme is based on grating coupling and laser pulses with wavefront rotation (WFR), so that the resonance condition for SPP excitation is satisfied only for a time window shorter than the driving pulse. The feasibility and robustness of the techn...
متن کاملSurface-plasmon wavefront and spectral shaping by near-field holography
A R TI CL E Abstract Surface-plasmon-polariton waves are twodimensional electromagnetic surface waves that propagate at the interface between a metal and a dielectric. These waves exhibit unusual and attractive properties, such as high spatial confinement and enhancement of the optical field, and are widely used in a variety of applications, such as sensing and subwavelength optics. The ability...
متن کاملExtraordinary optical transmission for surface- plasmon-resonance-based sensing
In 1998, Ebbesen and co-workers demonstrated the surprising result that arrays of small holes in a metal show optical transmission resonances [1]. This result was surprising because Bethe's aperture theory predicts negligible transmission through a single small hole in a thin metal film. As a result the phenomenon was termed extraordinary optical transmission (EOT). Unfortunately, the term EOT ...
متن کاملSensing using differential surface plasmon ellipsometry
In this work a differential ellipsometric method utilizing surface plasmons (SPs) for monitoring refractive index changes, which could be used in chemical and biological sensors, is presented. The method is based upon determining the azimuth of elliptically polarized light reflected from a Kretschmann SP system, resulting from linearly polarized light containing both p and s components incident...
متن کاملLocalized surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy and sensing.
Localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) spectroscopy of metallic nanoparticles is a powerful technique for chemical and biological sensing experiments. Moreover, the LSPR is responsible for the electromagnetic-field enhancement that leads to surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and other surface-enhanced spectroscopic processes. This review describes recent fundamental spectroscopic stud...
