Preservation and destruction of the purity of two-photon states in the interaction with a nanoscatterer

Álvaro Nodar, Ruben Esteban, Carlos Maciel-Escudero +3

The optical resonances supported by nanostructures offer the possibility to enhance the interaction between matter and the quantum states of light. In this work, we provide a frame…

Identifying unbound strong bunching and the breakdown of the Rotating Wave Approximation in the quantum Rabi model

Álvaro Nodar, Ruben Esteban, Unai Muniain +3

We use a recently derived gauge-invariant formulation of the problem of a two-level system coupled to an optical cavity, to explore the transition between the weak, and the ultra-s…

Optomechanical Effects in Nanocavity-enhanced Resonant Raman Scattering of a Single Molecule

Xuan-Ming Shen, Yuan Zhang, Shunping Zhang +8

In this article, we address the optomechanical effects in surface-enhanced resonant Raman scattering (SERRS) from a single molecule in a nano-particle on mirror (NPoM) nanocavity b…

Hybrid photonic-plasmonic cavity design for very large Purcell factors at telecom wavelengths

Angela Barreda, Laura Mercade, Mario Zapara-Herrera +2

Hybrid photonic-plasmonic cavities can be tailored to display high Q-factors and extremely small mode volumes simultaneously, which results in large values of the Purcell factor, F…

Giant optomechanical spring effect in plasmonic nano- and picocavities probed by surface-enhanced Raman scattering

Lukas A. Jakob, William M. Deacon, Yuan Zhang +8

Molecular vibrations couple to visible light only weakly, have small mutual interactions, and hence are often ignored for non-linear optics. Here we show the extreme confinement pr…
