Digital resolution enhancement in surface plasmon microscopy

I. I. Smolyaninov, J. Elliott, G. Wurtz +2

The use of photonic crystal and negative refractive index materials is known to improve resolution of optical microscopy and lithography devices down to 80 nm level. Here we demons…

Diffraction grating revisited: a high-resolution plasmonic dispersive element

V. Mikhailov, J. Elliott, G. Wurtz +2

The spectral dispersion of light is critical in applications ranging from spectroscopy to sensing and optical communication technologies. We demonstrate that ultra-high spectral di…

Immersion microscopy based on photonic crystal materials

Igor I. Smolyaninov, Jill Elliott, G. Wurtz +2

Theoretical model of the enhanced optical resolution of the surface plasmon immersion microscope is developed, which is based on the optics of surface plasmon Bloch waves in the ti…

Far-field optical microscope with nanometer-scale resolution

Igor I. Smolyaninov, Christopher C. Davis, Jill Elliott +1

The resolution of far-field optical microscopes, which rely on propagating optical modes, is widely believed to be limited because of diffraction to a value on the order of a half-…

Polarization control of optical transmission of a periodic array of elliptical holes in a metal film

Jill Elliott, Igor I. Smolyaninov, Nikolay I. Zheludev +1

Spectral dependencies of polarized optical transmission of a metal film with a periodic array of elliptical nanoholes have been studied. Such nanostructured metal films exhibit the…

Vacuum diamagnetism of mesoscopic metallic samples

Igor I. Smolyaninov

Zero-point energy of surface plasmon modes of mesoscopic metal samples in an external magnetic field has been considered. The magnetic response of plasmon vacuum has shown to be di…
