Magnetic metamaterials in the blue range using aluminum nanostructures
Yogesh Jeyaram, Shankar K. Jha, Mario Agio +2
We report an experimental and theoretical study of the optical properties of two-dimensional arrays of aluminum nanoparticle in-tandem pairs. Plasmon resonances and effective optic…
Highly efficient interfacing of guided plasmons and photons in nanowires
Xue-Wen Chen, Vahid Sandoghdar, Mario Agio
Successful exploitations of strongly confined surface plasmon-polaritons critically rely on their efficient and rapid conversion to lossless channels. We demonstrate a simple, robu…
Light scattering by an oscillating dipole in a focused beam
Gert Zumofen, Nassiredin M. Mojarad, Mario Agio
The interaction between a focused beam and a single classical oscillating dipole or a two-level system located at the focal spot is investigated. In particular, the ratio of the sc…
Metal nanoparticles in strongly confined beams: transmission, reflection and absorption
Nassiredin Mojarad, Gert Zumofen, Vahid Sandoghdar +1
We investigate the interaction of tightly focused light with the surface-plasmon-polariton resonances of metal nanospheres. In particular, we compute the scattering and absorption…
Tailoring the excitation of localized surface plasmon-polariton resonances by focusing radially-polarized beams
Nassiredin M. Mojarad, Mario Agio
We study the interaction of focused radially-polarized light with metal nanospheres. By expanding the electromagnetic field in terms of multipoles, we gain insight on the excitatio…
