Ultrastrong Coupling of Band-Nested Excitons in Few-Layer Molybdenum Disulphide

Aaron H. Rose, Taylor J. Aubry, Hanyu Zhang +1

The two-dimensional transition-metal dichalcogenides (2D TMDCs) are an intriguing platform for studying light-matter interactions because they combine the electronic properties of…

Tuning and Switching a Plasmonic Quantum Dot Sandwich in a Nematic Line Defect

Haridas Mundoor, Ghadah. H. Sheetah, Sungoh Park +3

We study the quantum-mechanical effects arising in a single semiconductor core/shell quantum dot controllably sandwiched between two plasmonic nanorods. Control over the position a…

Plasmon-Exciton Interactions Probed Using Spatial Coentrapment of Nanoparticles by Topological Singularities

P. J. Ackerman, Haridas Mundoor, I. I. Smalyukh +1

We study plasmon-exciton interaction by using topological singularities to spatially confine, selectively deliver, cotrap and optically probe colloidal semiconductor and plasmonic…

Shape-dependent oriented trapping and scaffolding of plasmonic nanoparticles by topological defects for self-assembly of colloidal dimers in liquid crystals

Bohdan Senyuk, Julian S. Evans, Paul J. Ackerman +6

We demonstrate scaffolding of plasmonic nanoparticles by topological defects induced by colloidal microspheres to match their surface boundary conditions with a uniform far-field a…

Optically and elastically assembled plasmonic nanoantennae for spatially resolved characterization of chemical composition in soft matter systems using surface enhanced spontaneous and stimulated Raman scattering

Haridas Mundoor, Taewoo Lee, Derek G. Gann +4

We present a method to locally probe spatially varying chemical composition of soft matter systems by use of optically controlled and elastically self-assembled plasmonic nanoanten…
