Quantitative infrared nanoscopy: Probe-cavity eigenmodes and nano-gap polaritons for strongly coupled nanoscale optics

Benjamin Allen, Brayden Lukaskawcez, Alyssa Bragg +6

Optical nanoscopies including near-field optical microscopy and spectroscopy circumvent the diffraction limit of conventional optics thanks to the nanoscale light focus emerging at…

Plasmon dynamics in graphene

Suheng Xu, Birui Yang, Nishchhal Verma +15

Plasmon are collective oscillations of mobile electrons with dynamics controlled by their charge stiffness("Drude weight"). Using terahertz spacetime metrology, we probe Plasmon dy…

Nano-photocurrent mapping of local electronic structure in twisted bilayer graphene

Sai S. Sunku, Alexander S. McLeod, Tobias Stauber +10

We report a combined nano-photocurrent and infrared nanoscopy study of twisted bilayer graphene (TBG) enabling access to the local electronic phenomena at length scales as short as…

Harnessing Ultraconfined Graphene Plasmons to Probe the Electrodynamics of Superconductors

A. T. Costa, P. A. D. Gonçalves, D. N. Basov +3

We show that the Higgs mode of a superconductor, which is usually challenging to observe by far-field optics, can be made clearly visible using near-field optics by harnessing ultr…

Collective modes and terahertz near-field response of superconductors

Zhiyuan Sun, M. M. Fogler, D. N. Basov +1

We theoretically study the low energy electromagnetic response of BCS type superconductors focusing on propagating collective modes that are observable with THz near field optics.…

Photo-enhanced metastable c-axis electrodynamics in stripe ordered cuprate LaBaCuO

Kevin A. Cremin, Jingdi Zhang, Christopher C. Homes +6

Quantum materials are amenable to non-equilibrium manipulation with light, enabling modification and control of macroscopic properties. Light-based augmentation of superconductivit…
