Hyperbolic Nanocavities for Single-Molecule Vibrational Strong Coupling
Stavros Athanasiou, Olivier J. F. Martin, Francisco J. García-Vidal +1
Hyperbolic phonon polaritons (HPhPs) in low-loss anisotropic materials such as hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) provide extreme sub-diffractional field confinement in the mid-infrared…

Near-Field Engineering of Silica-Shelled Plasmonic Nanoparticles toward Enhanced Near-Infrared Fluorescence
Eleonora G. Radaelli, Stavros Athanasiou, Robin E. Schaublin +3
Near-infrared (NIR) fluorescent molecules often suffer from low quantum yields, limiting their applications in sensing and imaging. Their fluorescence can be enhanced by coupling w…
