Intrinsic plasmon canalization in the biaxial van der Waals crystal MoOCl
Farid Aghashirinov, Andrea Mancini, Lin Nan +4
Anisotropic polaritons in low-symmetry crystals allow for subwavelength confinement and directional routing of light. The most extreme form of such anisotropy arises at the topolog…
Phonon-polaritonic skyrmions: Transition from bubble- to Néel-type
Florian Mangold, Enrico Baù, Lin Nan +6
Optical skyrmions are members of the emerging topological branch of solid-state physics and photonics, allowing for control over topological light textures through light-matter int…
Coherent Acoustic Phonons in Plasmonic Nanoparticles: Elastic Properties and Dissipation at Low Temperatures
Hilario D. Boggiano, Thomas Possmayer, Luis Morguet +7
We studied the frequency and quality factor of mechanical plasmonic nanoresonators as a function of temperature, ranging from ambient to 4 K. Our investigation focused on individua…
Highly confined incident-angle-robust surface phonon polariton bound states in the continuum metasurfaces
Lin Nan, Andrea Mancini, Thomas Weber +4
Squeezing light into subwavelength dimensions is vital for on-chip integration of photonic technologies. One approach to overcome the diffraction limit is coupling light to materia…
Focusing Surface Acoustic Waves with a Plasmonic Hypersonic Lens
Hilario D. Boggiano, Lin Nan, Gustavo Grinblat +3
Plasmonic nanoantennas have proven to be efficient transducers of electromagnetic to mechanical energy and vice versa. The sudden thermal expansion of these structures after an ult…
