Ab initio analytical model of lasing in plasmonic lattices
arXiv:2410.23697
Abstract
The first-principles theory of lasing in a rectangular lattice of spherical metal nanoparticles is developed in a fully analytical form in the dipole approximation. The lasing conditions are obtained for different diffraction orders, both propagating and evanescent. Their analysis reveals that besides usual lasing there can be lasing without population inversion which is invisible in conventional experiments, but can be observed in total internal reflection.
