Calibrating quantum hydrodynamic model for noble metals in nanoplasmonics
Qiang Zhou, Wancong Li, Zi He +2
Quantum hydrodynamic model (QHDM) has become a versatile and efficient tool for studying plasmonics at the nanoscopic length scale. Yet its application to noble metals has not been…
Quasinormal mode theory for nanoscale electromagnetism with quantum surface responses
Qiang Zhou, Pu Zhang, Xue-Wen Chen
We report a self-consistent quasinormal mode theory for nanometer scale electromagnetism where the possible nonlocal and quantum effects are treated through quantum surface respons…
A general framework of canonical quasinormal mode analysis for extreme nano-optics
Qiang Zhou, Pu Zhang, Xue-Wen Chen
Optical phenomena associated with extremely localized field should be understood with considerations of nonlocal and quantum effects, which pose a hurdle to conceptualize the physi…
Bright Optical Eigenmode with about 1 nm Volume
Wancong Li, Qiang Zhou, Pu Zhang +1
Concentrating optical field in an eigenmode with a tiny volume is vitally important for light-matter interactions at the fundamental level and underpins new technologies. In the pa…
The Truncated Metallo-dielectric Omnidirectional Reflector: Collecting Single Photons in the Fundamental Gaussian Mode with 95% Efficiency
Wancong Li, Luis Morales-Inostroza, Weiwang Xu +4
We propose a novel antenna structure which funnels single photons from a single emitter with unprecedented efficiency into a low-divergence fundamental Gaussian mode. Our device re…
Multiscale Modeling and Analysis for High-fidelity Interferometric Scattering Microscopy
Shupei Lin, Yong He, Hadrien Marc Louis Robert +4
Interferometric scattering microscopy (iSCAT), as an ultrasensitive fluorescence-free imaging modality, has recently gain enormous attention and been rapidly developing from demons…
Single-Molecule Doped Crystalline Nanosheets for Delicate Photophysics Studies and Directional Single-Photon Emitting Devices
Shangming Wei, Penglong Ren, Yong He +2
Single molecules in solids have been considered as an attractive class of solid-state single quantum systems because they can be chemically synthesized at low cost to have stable n…
Quantum Photonic Node for On-Chip State Transfer
Zhaohua Tian, Pu Zhang, Xue-Wen Chen
Integrated quantum photonics hold the promise to scale up the system size and form an on-chip quantum network with distributed information processing and simulation units. An outst…
On the Emission Pattern of Nanoscopic Emitters in Planar Anisotropic Matrix and Nanoantenna Structures
Pu Zhang, Penglong Ren, Xue-Wen Chen
Single nanoscopic emitters embedded in crystalline matrix have become a valuable resource for emerging nanophotonic and quantum technologies. The generally anisotropic nature of th…
A Single-Emitter Gain Medium for Bright Coherent Radiation from a Plasmonic Nanoresonator
Pu Zhang, Igor Protsenko, Vahid Sandoghdar +1
We theoretically demonstrate the generation and radiation of coherent nanoplasmons powered by a single three-level quantum emitter on a plasmonic nanoresonator. By pumping the thre…
Ab-initio nanoplasmonics: The impact of atomic structure
Pu Zhang, Johannes Feist, Angel Rubio +2
We present an ab-initio study of the hybridization of localized surface plasmons in a metal nanoparticle dimer. The atomic structure, which is often neglected in theoretical studie…
Inverse Transformation Optics and Reflection Analysis for Two-Dimensional Finite Embedded Coordinate Transformation
Pu Zhang, Yi Jin, Sailing He
Inverse transformation optics is introduced, and used to calculate the reflection at the boundary of a transformation medium under consideration. The transformation medium for a pr…
