Molecular nanoplasmonics: self-consistent electrodynamics in current carrying junctions
arXiv:1210.0942 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.86.205324
Abstract
We consider a biased molecular junction subjected to external time-dependent electromagnetic field. We discuss local field formation due to both surface plasmon-polariton excitations in the contacts and the molecular response. Employing realistic parameters we demonstrate that such self-consistent treatment is crucial for proper description of the junction transport characteristics.
