Body-of-Revolution Finite-Element Model of Plasmon-Enhanced Fluorescence
Luke C. Ugwuoke, Farooq Kyeyune, Tjaart P. J. Krüger
Plasmon-enhanced fluorescence (PEF) is one of the most widely investigated optical phenomena in hybrid systems of emitters and plasmonic nanoantennas, with applications ranging fro…
Stationary two-qubit entanglement mediated by one-dimensional plasmonic nanoarrays
Luke C. Ugwuoke, Tjaart P. J. Krüger, Mark S. Tame
Entanglement is one of the key measures of quantum correlations present in nanophotonic systems, with promising applications in quantum optics and beyond. Previous studies have sho…
Raspberry Pi multispectral imaging camera system (PiMICS): a low-cost, skills-based physics educational tool
John C. Howell, Brian Flores, Juan Javier Naranjo +9
We report on an educational pilot program for low-cost physics experimentation run in Ecuador, South Africa, and the United States. The program was developed after having needs-bas…
Quantum plasmonics model of refractive index sensing using photon correlations
L. C. Ugwuoke, T. P. J. Krüger, M. S. Tame
The interaction between the electric dipole moments of a quantum emitter and a metal nanoparticle gives rise to unique optical properties, such as interference-induced photon corre…
Theoretical comparison of real-time feedback-driven single-particle tracking techniques
Bertus van Heerden, Tjaart P. J. Krüger
Real-time feedback-driven single-particle tracking is a technique that uses feedback control to enable single-molecule spectroscopy of freely diffusing particles in native or near-…
Real-Time Feedback-Driven Single-Particle Tracking: A Survey and Perspective
Bertus van Heerden, Nicholas A. Vickers, Tjaart P. J. Krüger +1
Real-time feedback-driven single-particle tracking (RT-FD-SPT) is a class of techniques in the field of single-particle tracking that uses feedback control to keep a particle of in…
Plasmonic Quantum Yield Enhancement of a Single Molecule Near a Nanoegg
Luke C. Ugwuoke, Tomáš Mančal, Tjaart P. J. Krüger
We investigate the impact of the dipole-active modes formed via the mode-mixing of the dipole mode with higher-order surface plasmon modes of a nanoegg on the radiative decay rate…
Strong plasmonic fluorescence enhancement of individual plant light-harvesting complexes
Farooq Kyeyune, Joshua L. Botha, Bertus van Heerden +4
Plasmonic coupling of metallic nanoparticles and adjacent pigments can dramatically increase the brightness of the pigments due to the enhanced local electric field. Here, we demon…
Localized Surface Plasmon Resonances of Simple Tunable Plasmonic Nanostructures
Luke C. Ugwuoke, Tomáš Mančal, Tjaart P. J. Krüger
We derive and present systematic relationships between the analytical formulas for calculation of the localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPR) of some plasmonic nano-structures…
