“…While with these structures the color saturation is limited by the resonance quality of the individual optical scatterer, the combination of individual resonances with lattice modes enables resonance sharpening and thus more vivid colors 10,[22][23][24] . In particular, spectrally overlapping the Page 3 of 25 particle scattering with Wood's anomalies of the lattice creates sharp spectral features 10,23 .…”

“…This enables the representation of smooth photorealistic color and brightness transitions and a Page 4 of 25 continuous coverage of over 39% of the sRGB color gamut. This is a large step forward with respect to the state of the art, where, instead, discrete color hues and tones were reproduced 4,5,[18][19][20][21]26,6,7,[9][10][11][13][14][15] .…”

A Plasmonic Painter’s Method of Color Mixing for a Continuous Red–Green–Blue Palette

The ability of mixing colors with remarkable results had long been exclusive to the talents of master painters. By finely combining colors at different amounts on the palette intuitively, they obtain smooth gradients with any given color. Creating such smooth color variations through scattering by the structural patterning of a surface, as opposed to color pigments, has long remained a challenge. Here, we borrow from the painter's approach and demonstrate color mixing generated by an optical metasurface. We propose a singlelayer plasmonic color pixel and a method for nanophotonic structural color mixing based on the additive RGB color model. The color pixels consist of plasmonic nanorod arrays that generate vivid primary colors and enable independent control of color brightness without affecting chromaticity, by simply varying geometric in-plane parameters. By interleaving different nanorod arrays, we combine up to three primary colors on a single pixel. Based on this, two and three color mixing is demonstrated, enabling the continuous coverage of a plasmonic RGB color gamut and yielding a palette with a virtually unlimited number of colors. With this multi-resonant color pixel, we show the photorealistic printing Page 2 of 25 of color and monochrome images at the nanoscale, with ultra-smooth transitions in color and brightness. Our color mixing approach can be applied to a broad range of scatterer designs and materials, and has the potential to be used for multi-wavelength color filters and dynamic photorealistic displays.

“…Our recent studies also provided some theoretical analysis on the self-assembly of NMNPs, but the focus was mostly on experimental measurements and potential applications of these materials 23,24 . Furthermore, there is a number of theoretical studies on arrays of metal-insulator-metal particles (MIMs) [26][27][28][29][30] . Although the MIMs are synthesized in a process different from the self-assembly, their optical response has similarities with the response of close-packed nanoparticle bilayers, which makes them great to compare with.…”

Plasmonic Properties of Close-Packed Metallic Nanoparticle Mono- and Bilayers

et al. 2019

The self-assembly of metallic nanoparticles is a promising route to metasurfaces with unique properties for many optical applications, such as surface-enhanced spectroscopy, light manipulation, and sensing. We present an in-depth theoretical study of the optical properties of mono-and bilayers assembled from gold and silver nanoparticles. With finite-difference time-domain simulations, we predict the occurence of two plasmon modes, a bright and a dark mode, which exhibit symmetric and antisymmetric dipole configurations between the layers, respectively. The dark mode resonance energy depends sensitively on the size of the particles and the interparticle gaps. Hotspots with a nearfield intensity enhancement of up to 3000 are expected, which, together with the fact that the dark mode is roughly four times narrower than the bright mode, reveals how promising these materials are for spectroscopy purposes.

“…Plasmonic hole and slit array color filters have been demonstrated as a viable alternative to dye-based filters for RGB and CMYK color-filtering [3][4][5][6][7][8]. In addition to hole and slit array filters, many other geometries have been explored as potential platforms for commercially viable plasmonic color filters [9][10][11][12]. Recently, this spate of development has been translated into industrial CMOS image sensor prototypes and are actively being considered for full commercialization [13].…”

Abstract:The subwavelength mode volumes of plasmonic filters are well matched to the small size of state-of-the-art active pixels in CMOS image sensor arrays used in portable electronic devices. Typical plasmonic filters exhibit broad (> 100 nm) transmission bandwidths suitable for RBG or CMYK color filtering. Dramatically reducing the peak width of filter transmission spectra would allow for the realization of CMOS image sensors with multi-and hyperspectral imaging capabilities. We find that the design of 5 layer metalinsulator-metal-insulator-metal structures gives rise to multi-mode interference phenomena that suppress spurious transmission features and give rise to single transmission bands as narrow as 17 nm. The transmission peaks of these multilayer slot-mode plasmonic filters (MSPFs) can be systematically varied throughout the visible and near infrared spectrum, leading to a filter that is CMOS integrable, since the same basic MSPF structure can operate over a large range of wavelengths. We find that MSPF filter designs that can achieve a bandwidth less than 30 nm across the visible and demonstrate experimental prototypes with a FWHM of 70 nm, and we describe how experimental structure can be made to approach the limits suggested by the model.
