Molecular optomechanics in the anharmonic cavity-QED regime using hybrid metal-dielectric cavity modes

arXiv:1805.10153 · doi:10.1021/acsphotonics.8b01091

Abstract

Using carefully designed hybrid metal-dielectric resonators, we study molecular optomechanics in the strong coupling regime (), which manifests in anharmonic emission lines in the sideband-resolved region of the cavity-emitted spectrum (). This nonlinear optomechanical strong coupling regime is enabled through a metal-dielectric cavity system that yields not only deep sub-wavelength plasmonic confinement, but also dielectric-like confinement times that are more than two orders of magnitude larger than those from typical localized plasmon modes. These hybrid metal-dielectric cavity modes enable one to study new avenues of quantum plasmonics for single molecule Raman scattering.
