Strong light-matter interactions in hybrid polaritonic systems
Ben Johns, Andrea Schirato, Federico Toffoletti +13
Strong light-matter coupling gives rise to polaritons - hybrid excitations whose mixed photonic and matter character enables control over optical, electronic and chemical propertie…
Beyond the Quantum Picture: The Electrodynamic Origin of Chiral Nanoplasmonics
Vasil Saroka, Lorenzo Cupellini, Nicolò Maccaferri +2
Chiral plasmonic nanostructures are rapidly emerging as ideal substrates for enantioselective sensing, chiral near-field engineering, and plasmon-assisted catalysis, owing to their…
In-operando dipole orientation for bipolar injection from air-stable electrodes into organic semiconductors
Anton Kirch, Joan Rà fols-Ribé, Kumar Saumya +9
Efficient charge-carrier injection from air-stable electrodes into organic semiconductors (OSCs) is essential for fabricating solution-processed organic optoelectronic devices unde…
Improving conditional generative adversarial networks for inverse design of plasmonic structures
Petter Persson, Nils Henriksson, Nicolò Maccaferri
Deep learning has emerged as a key tool for designing nanophotonic structures that manipulate light at sub-wavelength scales. We investigate how to inversely design plasmonic nanos…
Polarization conversion using hybrid near-zero and high-index metamaterials
Ben Johns, Hannes Kempf, Lakshmi Das +2
Near-zero-refractive index materials display unique optical properties such as perfect transmission through distorted waveguides, cloaking, and inhibited diffraction. Compared to c…
UV-SERS monitoring of plasmons photodegradation of biomolecules on Aluminum platforms decorated with Rhodium nanoparticles
Yanqiu Zou, Luca Mattarozzi, Huaizhou Jin +13
In the search for novel nanostructured materials for UV plasmonics a limited number of choices can be done. Materials such as aluminum, rhodium, gallium and few others can be used.…
