Nanoassembled plasmonic-photonic hybrid cavity for tailored light-matter coupling.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We propose and demonstrate a hybrid cavity system in which metal nanoparticles are evanescently coupled to a dielectric photonic crystal cavity using a nanoassembly method. While the metal constituents lead to strongly localized fields, optical feedback is provided by the surrounding photonic crystal structure. The combined effect of plasmonic field enhancement and high quality factor (Q approximately 900) opens new routes for the control of light-matter interaction at the nanoscale.

We show that efficient coupling of lightwave is possible to an individual plasmonic nanoresonator in a hybrid plasmonic-photonic resonator structure. The proposed hybrid structure consists of a photonic microresonator strongly coupled to a plasmonic nanoresonator. The theory and simulation results show that more than 73% of the input power in the waveguide can be coupled to the localized resona...

In this work, we demonstrate a new directional coupling scheme for efficient light coupling between photonic Si3N4 and plasmonic Au-based metallic slot waveguides. The plasmonic-photonic hybrid waveguide structure is capable of supporting guided modes with even and odd symmetry. This feature can lead to the development of an efficient power exchange mechanism which can achieve power transmissio...

We propose a hybrid optical nanocavity consisting of photonic crystals coupled to a metal surface with a nanoscale air gap between. The hybridization of photonic crystal modes and surface plasmons across the gap forms hybrid cavity modes, which are highly confined in the low-loss air gap region. Deep subwavelength mode volume and high quality factor are demonstrated at telecommunication wavelen...
متن کاملHybrid coupling mechanism in a system supporting high order diffraction, plasmonic, and cavity resonances.
The interactions between plasmonic and photonic modes of a cavity-coupled plasmonic crystal are studied in diffraction and diffractionless regimes, which lead us to the understanding of coherent interactions between electron plasma, higher order cavity, and diffraction modes. The strong interaction between plasmonic and photonic modes is shown to enhance as well as suppress surface plasmon reso...
