Mode-matching for Optical Antennas
Thorsten Feichtner, Silke Christiansen, Bert Hecht
The emission rate of a point dipole can be strongly increased in presence of a well-designed optical antenna. Yet, optical antenna design is largely based on radio-frequency rules,…
Strong plasmonic enhancement of biexciton emission: controlled coupling of a single quantum dot to a gold nanocone antenna
Korenobu Matsuzaki, Simon Vassant, Hsuan-Wei Liu +8
Multiexcitonic transitions and emission of several photons per excitation comprise a very attractive feature of semiconductor quantum dots for optoelectronics applications. However…
Plasmonic Gold Helices for the visible range fabricated by oxygen plasma purification of electron beam induced deposits
Caspar Haverkamp, Katja Höflich, Sara Jäckle +2
Electron beam induced deposition (EBID) currently provides the only direct writing technique for truly three-dimensional nanostructures with geometrical features below 50 nm. Unfor…
Photonic light trapping in silicon nanowire arrays: deriving and overcoming the physical limitations
Sebastian W. Schmitt, Silke H. Christiansen
Hexagonally aligned, free-standing silicon nanowire (SiNW) arrays serve as photonic resonators which, as compared to a silicon (Si) thin film, do not only absorb more visible (VIS)…
Electromechanically Tunable Suspended Optical Nano-antenna
Kai Chen, Gary Razinskas, Thorsten Feichtner +3
Coupling mechanical degrees of freedom with plasmonic resonances has potential applications in optomechanics, sensing, and active plasmonics. Here we demonstrate a suspended two-wi…
