Hyperbolic Metamaterials and Coupled Surface Plasmon Polaritons: comparative analysis
Tengfei Li, Jacob B. Khurgin
We investigate the optical properties of sub-wavelength layered metal/dielectric structures, also known as hyperbolic metamaterials (HMMs), using exact analytical Kronig Penney (KP…

Replacing Noble Metals with Alternative Materials in Plasmonics and Metamaterials: how good an idea?
Jacob B Khurgin
Noble metals that currently dominate the fields of plasmonics and metamaterials suffer from large ohmic losses. New plasmonic materials, such as doped oxides and nitrides, have sma…

Excitation of plasmonic nanoantennas with nonresonant and resonant electron tunnelling
Alexander V. Uskov, Jacob B. Khurgin, Igor E. Protsenko +2
A rigorous theory of photon emission accompanied inelastic tunnelling inside the gap of plasmonic nanoantennas has been developed. The disappointingly low efficiency of the electri…
