Multimode vibrational strong coupling in Direct Laser written Mid-IR plasmonic MIM nano-patch antennas

Nicholas V. Proscia, Michael A. Meeker, Nicholas Sharac +4

Metal-Insulator-Metal (MIM) plasmonic structures can confine electromagnetic waves to a deep subwavelength regime, enabling strong light-matter interactions with potential applicat…

Giant magneto-optical Kerr enhancement from films on SiC due to the optical properties of the substrate

A. Mukherjee, C. T. Ellis, M. M. Arik +13

We report a giant enhancement of the mid-infrared (MIR) magneto-optical complex Kerr angle (polarization change of reflected light) in a variety of materials grown on SiC. In epita…

Hybrid Longitudinal-Transverse Phonon Polaritons

Christopher R. Gubbin, Rodrigo Berté, Michael A. Meeker +6

We demonstrate how to exploit long-cell polytypes of silicon carbide to achieve strong coupling between transverse phonon polaritons and zone folded longitudinal optical phonons. T…

Controlling the Infrared Dielectric Function through Atomic-Scale Heterostructures

Daniel C. Ratchford, Christopher J. Winta, Ioannis Chatzakis +20

Surface phonon polaritons (SPhPs) - the surface-bound electromagnetic modes of a polar material resulting from the coupling of light with optic phonons - offer immense technologica…

Active Tuning of Surface Phonon Polariton Resonances via Carrier Photoinjection

Adam D. Dunkelberger, Chase T. Ellis, Daniel C. Ratchford +10

Surface-phonon polaritons (SPhPs) are attractive alternatives to far-infrared plasmonics for sub-diffractional confinement of light. Localized SPhP resonances in semiconductor nano…

Ultra-low-loss Polaritons in Isotopically Pure Materials: A New Approach

Alexander J. Giles, Siyuan Dai, Igor Vurgaftman +12

Conventional optical components are limited to size-scales much larger than the wavelength of light, as changes in the amplitude, phase and polarization of the electromagnetic fiel…
