Probing individual phonon-polaritonic nanoparticle-on-mirror cavities by infrared nanospectroscopy

Isabel Pascual Robledo, Iker Herrero León, Karol Kołataj +4

Nanoparticle-on-mirror (NPoM) cavities enable extreme light confinement and strong light-matter interactions, but their realization with phonon-polariton materials in the mid-infra…

Color Routing and Beam Steering of Single-Molecule Emission with a Spherical Silicon Nanoantenna

Maria Sanz-Paz, Nicole Siegel, Guillermo Serrera +7

Single-photon emitters radiate as electric dipoles, which limits light collection efficiency and complicates integration into flat photonic devices. Developing nanophotonic structu…
