“…Our method takes advantage of the constructive interference between two contra-propagating plasmonic modes to suppress the Ohmic loss, and we achieve stability by coupling the atomic ensemble dynamics of injected signal plasmonic waves. This quantum-plasmonic configuration, thereby serves as an efficient plasmonic transistor 92 . The operation of this device is based on the generation of controllable output plasmonic fields for a weak input SPP signal.…”

Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) lasing requires population inversion, it is inefficient and possesses poor spectral properties. We develop an inversion-less concept for a quantum plasmonic waveguide that exploits unidirectional superradiant SPP (SSPP) emission of radiation to produce intense coherent surface plasmon beams. Our scheme includes a resonantly driven cold atomic medium in a lossless dielectric situated above an ultra-low loss negative index metamaterial (NIMM) layer. We propose generating unidirectional superradiant radiation of the plasmonic field within an atomic medium and a NIMM layer interface and achieve amplified SPPs by introducing phase-match between the superradiant SPP wave and coupled laser fields. We also establish a parametric resonance between the weak modulated plasmonic field and the collective oscillations of the atomic ensemble, thereby suppressing decoherence of the stably amplified directional polaritonic mode. Our method incorporates the quantum gain of the atomic medium to obtain sufficient conditions for coherent amplification of superradiant SPP waves, and we explore this method to quantum dynamics of the atomic medium being coupled with the weak polaritonic waves. Our waveguide configuration acts as a surface plasmon laser and quantum plasmonic transistor and opens prospects for designing controllable nano-scale lasers for quantum and nano-photonic applications.

“…В настоящее время разрабатываются теоретические модели и реализуются экспериментально наноразмерные плазмонные элементы микросхем, такие как вентили и плазмонные полевые транзисторы [13][14][15][16][17], модуляторы [18], нанопреобразователи [19], логические элементы [5,6], в том числе функционирующие при возбуждении плазмон-поляритонов полупроводниковыми квантовыми излучателями [4,13,20,21] в сильнонелинейных режимах [22]. При этом размеры управляю-щих плазмонных схем будут иметь габариты в несколько раз меньшие, чем оптические схемы управления.…”

Рассмотрены особенности оптического управления распространением поверхностных плазмон-поляритонов в плазмонных схемах на основе тонких металлических волноводов и полупроводниковых наноструктур. Предложена модель плазмонного резонатора с дополнительными элементами на основе полупроводниковых материалов, проявляющих сильную фотопроводимость. С помощью численного моделирования показана возможность переключения потока поверхностных плазмон-поляритонов в плазмонной схеме посредством включения/выключения внешнего оптического поля накачки, изменяющего вклад светоиндуцированной проводимости управляющих элементов. Ключевые слова: поверхностные плазмон-поляритоны, металлический плазмонный волновод, фотопроводимость, плазмонный резонатор.

“…It has been found that drifting electrons using an external electric current [27][28][29][30][31] or static magnetic field [32][33][34] causes an asymmetric dispersion and the nonreciprocity of SPPs. In addition, the modulation of SPPs at the single metal-dielectric interface was demonstrated using a gate-biased field effect [35] and a light pulse [36,37]. In our recent study [38], we proposed that using a long-range SPP (LRSPP) as a carrier wave, a plasmonic signal can be invertedly copied from a modulated optical signal, through use of a plasmonic signal copier (PSC).…”

Work on controlling the propagation of surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) through the use of external stimuli has attracted much attention due to the potential use of SPPs in nanoplasmonic integrated circuits. We report that the excitation of edge plasmon by TE-polarized light passing across gapped-SPP waveguides (G-SPPWs) leads to the suppressed transmission of long-range SPPs (LRSPPs) propagating along G-SPPWs. The induced current density by highly confined edge plasmon is numerically investigated to characterize the extended radiation length of decoupled LRSPPs by the TE-induced edge plasmon. The suppressed transmission of LRSPPs is confirmed using the measured extinction ratio of the plasmonic signals which are generated from the modulated optical signals, when compared to the extended radiation length calculated for a wide range of the input power. It is also shown that LRSPP transmission is sensitive to the excited power of edge plasmon in the gap through the permittivity change near the gap. Such a control of SPPs through the use of light could be boosted by the hybridized edge plasmon mode and a huge field enhancement using nanogap, gratings or metasurfaces, and could provide opportunities for ultrafast nano-plasmonic signal generation that is compatible with pervasive optical communication systems.
