Incoherent and coherent manipulation of surface plasmon hole burning

Rafi Ud Din, Xuewen Chen, Iftikhar Ahmad +1 more

Abstract We theoretically investigate the spectral hole burning of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) at an interface between rubidium ( 87 Rb) atomic medium and silver. A typical Lamb dip can be observed at a certain frequency where the absorption of SPPs is suddenly reduced. By applying Kerr-type nonlinearity to the 87 Rb atomic gas, the slope of dispersion becomes more normal and steeper. Under the effect of Doppler broadening, a group index of at the SPPs hole burning region is obtained and is further enhanced to with the application of Kerr-nonlinearity. Similarly, the propagation length of SPPs is increased at the hole burning region and is further enhanced with Kerr-nonlinearity. Further, we show that this nonlinear effect results in the enhancement of the phase shift from 0.02 to 1.5 radian at the hole burning region. These results may find important applications in nano-photonics, optical tweezers, photovoltaic devices and sensing technology.

A Review of Many-Body Interactions in Linear and Nonlinear Plasmonic Nanohybrids

Mahi R. Singh

In this review article, we discuss the many-body interactions in plasmonic nanohybrids made of an ensemble of quantum emitters and metallic nanoparticles. A theory of the linear and nonlinear optical emission intensity was developed by using the many-body quantum mechanical density matrix method. The ensemble of quantum emitters and metallic nanoparticles interact with each other via the dipole-dipole interaction. Surfaces plasmon polaritons are located near to the surface of the metallic nanoparticles. We showed that the nonlinear Kerr intensity enhances due to the weak dipole-dipole coupling limits. On the other hand, in the strong dipole-dipole coupling limit, the single peak in the Kerr intensity splits into two peaks. The splitting of the Kerr spectrum is due to the creation of dressed states in the plasmonic nanohybrids within the strong dipole-dipole interaction. Further, we found that the Kerr nonlinearity is also enhanced due to the interaction between the surface plasmon polaritons and excitons of the quantum emitters. Next, we predicted the spontaneous decay rates are enhanced due to the dipole-dipole coupling. The enhancement of the Kerr intensity due to the surface plasmon polaritons can be used to fabricate nanosensors. The splitting of one peak (ON) two peaks (OFF) can be used to fabricate the nanoswitches for nanotechnology and nanomedical applications.

Enhanced atomic localization via surface plasmons at the interface of sodium and multi-walled carbon nanotubes

Zahid Ullah, Muhammad Usman, Prakash Kanjariya +6 more

Abstract Two-dimensional atomic microscopy is governed by the dispersion relation of surface plasmon polariton (SPP) waves at the interface between sodium metal and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). The absorption or damping spectrum of these SPP waves encodes critical information about atomic localization. In accordance with Heisenberg microscopy, atoms can be localized with a resolution of along any spatial axis ( x, y , or z ). In this study, we tune the dispersion relation of SPPs by adjusting control fields and the parameters of MWCNTs. By adjusting these parameters, we achieve control over the number and positioning of single, double, and multiple localized peaks within a single wavelength domain in the damping spectrum of SPPs on a two-dimensional plane. Notably, we demonstrate atomic localization at scales significantly smaller than , with peak widths reduced to below along both x - and y -axes. Furthermore, we manipulate the shape and arrangement of localization peaks, achieving loop-like, wall-like, crater-like, and Gaussian profiles. These advancements have potential applications in high-precision atomic position measurement, nano-lithography, and Bose-Einstein condensation.
