Strongly enhanced light-matter interaction in a hybrid photonic-plasmonic resonator
arXiv:1206.2422 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.85.031805
Abstract
We propose a hybrid photonic-plasmonic resonant structure which consists of a metal nanoparticle (MNP) and a whispering gallery mode (WGM) microcavity. It is found that the hybrid mode enables a strong interaction between the light and matter, and the single-atom cooperativity is enhanced by more than two orders of magnitude compared to that in a bare WGM microcavity. This remarkable improvement originates from two aspects: (1) the MNP offers a highly enhanced local field in the vicinity of an emitter, and (2), surprisingly, the high-\textit{Q} property of WGMs can be maintained in the presence of the MNP. Thus the present system has great advantages over a single microcavity or a single MNP, and holds great potential in quantum optics, nonlinear optics and highly sensitive biosening.
