We numerically investigate the optical field enhancement based on gap surface plasmon polaritons (GSPPs) that are enhanced by propagating surface waves launched by a circular slit at a metal-dielectric interface. The optical field enhancement originates not only from multiple scattering and coupling of GSPPs in the spacer region between two metal layers but also from propagating surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) launched by a circular plasmonic lens. We find that the combination of the GSPPs and the propagating SPPs launched by the plasmonic lens can achieve extremely strong field confinement, and we find that the surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) enhancement factor can be up to 10(15) at the tip of the equilateral triangular nanostructures. The structure proposed here is expected to find promising applications where strong field enhancement is desired, such as optical sensing with the SERS effect. 相似文献

A novel plasmonic nanolens formed by a tapered subwavelength metal slit surrounded by surface dielectric gratings is proposed and demonstrated numerically. By patterning surface corrugations on the output surface, the beam can be focused, by regulating the aperture, the focal length can be controlled effectively. Numerical simulations using Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) method coupled with anisotropic perfectly matched layer (APML) boundary conditions verify that the proposed metallic lens can focus the radiation on the scale of a wavelength below the substrate and the method is effective for the design of nano-optical devices such as optical microprobes. 相似文献

We present a systematic experimental investigation on visible light collimation by a nanostructured slit flanked with a pair of periodic array of grooves in gold thin film. A wide variety of aspects are considered, such as the polarization state, the transport path of incident light, the groove--groove spacing, the groove width and depth. Our results clearly show that the relationship between the collimation wavelength and the periodicity of the slit-groove structure accords well with the surface plasmon dispersion model proposed by previous researchers. Furthermore, the surface plasmon wave phase retardation effect induced by the surface structure is also verified via the measurement for samples with different groove widths and depths. These results indicate that the detailed geometry of the groove structure has obvious impacts on the collimation effect and the angular distribution of the diffraction light in the subwavelength plasmonic system. 相似文献

Gold plasmonic lenses consisting of a planar concentric rings-groove with different periods were milled with a focused gallium ion beam on a gold thin film deposited onto an Er3+-doped tellurite glass. The plasmonic lenses were vertically illuminated with an argon ion laser highly focused by means of a 50× objective lens. The focusing mechanism of the plasmonic lenses is explained using a coherent interference model of surface plasmon-polariton (SPP) generation on the circular grating due to the incident field. As a result, phase modulation can be accomplished by the groove gap, similar to a nanoslit array with different widths. This focusing allows a high confinement of SPPs that can excite the Er3+ ions of the glass. The Er3+ luminescence spectra were measured in the far-field (500?C750?nm wavelength range), where we could verify the excitation yield via the plasmonic lens on the Er3+ ions. We analyze the influence of the geometrical parameters on the luminescence spectra. The variation of these parameters results in considerable changes of the luminescence spectra. 相似文献

Estimation of field intensity distribution and its wavelength dependence in a flat focusing nanolens
The application of surface plasmonic effects in engineering of a wavelength-tunable silver nanolens for the beam focusing is considered. Its design includes flat nanoslits for phase and amplitude modulation of light beams. Initially its operation has been checked for light beams with a wavelength of about 1.3 µm by observing the variance in the focal point distance with respect to alterations in structural parameters, such as the metal thickness, slit width, and pitch. The near-field intensity with respect to deviation in the focal point and deflection from the mean power for an optical 100-nm window is estimated for other popular optical communication wavelengths (0.85 and 1.55 µm) using the finite-difference timedomain method with boundary conditions for anisotropic, perfectly matched layers. The novelty in the proposed lens is its capability to function satisfactorily for a tolerance range of ±2.5% in the design parameters for the wavelengths under consideration. 相似文献

A method to obtain large transmission of light through a nano-metallic slit bordered by nano trenches is demonstrated theoretically. The model is based on the composite diffraction of evanescent waves (CDEW) theory and utilizes a single trench design to effectively convert free-space light into surface plasma waves (SPW). The effectiveness is confirmed by the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method. The SPW loss due to scattering by the trench is also analyzed. It is found that when the width of the trench is slightly larger than λspp/2, the SPW becomes localized and resonates at the bottom edges performing as a dipole-like radiation source. At this time, the propagating SPW suffers from high scattering loss. Trenches can be used to enhance the transmission of a nano-scaled slit while simultaneously preserving high conversion efficiency and low scattering loss. A nano-scaled slit bordered by 10 pairs of trenches can be enhanced by a factor as high as 16. It is determined that a device designed to have a large clear aperture of 15 μm would have an advantage in terms of alignment. 相似文献

In this paper, we have proposed a plasmonic splitter which is composed of a subwavelength slit and two different metal-insulator-metal (MIM) waveguides with periodic grooves. The slit is used to excite surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) at certain wavelengths. By setting the SPPs resonance wavelengths of the slit as the Bragg wavelengths of MIM waveguides, the SPPs of different wavelengths are able to be confined and guided in the two different MIM waveguides. The numerical results of two-dimensional finite difference time domain (2D-FDTD) demonstrate that our proposed structure is capable of splitting light into two MIM waveguides. 相似文献

Surface plasmons show tremendous capability in integrated communication, quantum computing and sensing. Excitations and manipulations of surface plasmons are essential in developing integrated photonic devices. Here, a systematic study of tunable emission of surface plasmons with an eightfold quasicrystal metasurface, which acts as an on‐chip source, is presented. It is shown that the quasicrystal structure can switch on or off the surface plasmons propagation channels in the desired direction. Meanwhile, such a quasicrystal structure can be polarization‐dependent or polarization‐independent based on different constituent slit pairs. The proposed quasicrystal design provides more freedom for steering surface plasmons in the launching process. Thus, it may significantly simplify the design and fabrication of integrated plasmonic devices. 相似文献

We experimentally demonstrate a metal-film bidirectional surface wave splitter for guiding light at two visible wavelengths in opposite directions. Two nanoscale gratings were patterned on opposite sides of a subwavelength slit. The metallic surface grating structures were tailored geometrically to have different plasmonic bandgaps, enabling each grating to guide light of one wavelength and prohibit propagation at the other wavelength. The locations of the bandgaps were experimentally confirmed by interferometric measurements. Based on these design principles, a green-red bidirectional surface wave splitter is demonstrated, and the observed optical properties are shown to agree with theoretical predictions. 相似文献

A novel plasmonic structure consisting of three nano-scaled slits coupled by nano-disk-shaped nanocavities is pro- posed to produce subwavelength focusing and beam bending at optical frequencies. The incident light passes through the metal slits in the form of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) ,and then scatters into radiation fields. Numerical simulations using finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method show that the transmitted fields through the design example can gener- ate light focusing and deflection by altering the refractive index of the coupled nanocavity. The simulation results indicate that the focal spot is beyond the diffraction limit. Light impinges on the surface at an angle to the optical axis will add an extra planar phase front that interferes with the asymmetric phase front of the plasmonic lens, leading to a larger bending angle off the axial direction. The advantages of the proposed plasmonic lens are smaller device size and ease of fabrication. Such geometries offer the potential to be controlled by using nano-positior!i0g systems for applications in dynamic beam shaping and scanning on the nanoscale. 相似文献

A method is given for decomposing the widths of observed spectral lines resulting from unresolved line splitting, additive kinetic processes of different types, instrumental broadening (slit function), Doppler broadening, etc. all superimposed. The second moments are used as measures of the various widths involved. The method is not applicable if dispersion type (Lorentz) broadening occurs. Application is made to plasma charge-exchange-neutral spectra of hydrogen, deuterium, and helium. 相似文献

Computer simulations and density functional theory results are reported for a Lennard-Jones liquid in a slit or pore formed by two parallel hard walls. Both density profiles and solvation forces are computed. Two classes of calculation are performed. In the first class, a high bulk density is selected and, starting from a high temperature, the temperature is reduced until the temperature corresponding to bulk liquid—vapour coexistence is reached. For small slit widths or exceedingly large widths, the density in the slit decreases continuously until the slit is virtually empty or ‘dry’. When the slit width is somewhat larger than a molecular diameter, but still finite, the density in the slit decreases continuously as the temperature is decreased until there is an abrupt change in the density in the slit. Below this temperature, the density is smaller. Further decreases in the temperature, result in a continuous decrease in the slit density until the slit is virtually empty. In the second class, the density and temperature for bulk coexistence are chosen and the bulk density is increased. At the temperature and bulk density for bulk coexistence, the slit is virtually empty and remains so for all widths that we consider. As the bulk density is increased at constant temperature, the slit remains empty as the width is increased until some specific width is reached and then starts to fill abruptly. The agreement of the density functional and simulation results is qualitative but good. 相似文献

To provide a more practical, easy-to-implement method to achieve directional modulation with a plasmonic lens, beam manipulation method via compound metallic gratings with two subwavelength slits filled with different dielectrics inside each period is proposed and numerically investigated by finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. Compared with conventional metal-grating based structures, phase retardation is tuned by the Fabry-Pérot (FP) resonant condition and light bending is achieved by constructing a carefully designed, curved phase front for the plasmonic lenses. Our designs have advantages in ease of fabrication and capability to perform in the far field. With these advantages, the designs are expected to be valuable in applications such as plasmonic circuits and photonic communication. 相似文献
