Strong light coupling effect for a glancing-deposited silver nanorod array in the Kretschmann configuration

Abstract: In this work, three slanted silver nanorod arrays (NRAs) with different thicknesses are fabricated using the glancing angle deposition method. Each silver NRA in the Kretschmann configuration is arranged to form a prism/NRA/air system. Attenuated total reflection occurs over the visible wavelengths and wide incident angles of both s- and p-polarization states. The extinctance is inversely proportional to the thickness of the Ag NRA. The thinnest NRA, with a thickness of 169 nm, exhibits strong extinctance of m… Show more

“…It is necessary to mention here that optical properties of the aligned Ag nanorod arrays are anisotropic and they strongly depend on polarization of incident angle because when light hits aligned nanorods, the oscillation of the electric field induces the longitudinal plasmon mode along the nanorods and the transverse plasmon mode perpendicular to the nanorods [8,17].…”

“…Compared to conventional optical microcavities, the plasmonic structure has the ability of subwavelength optical field confinement [ 18 ], causing a sharp suppression in its V mode as well as an enhanced and localized electric field, further increasing the value of / [ 19 ]. For example, the plasmonic gold dimer [ 20 ] and silver nanorod [ 21 ] are used to construct microcavities. However, due to the constant collision of free electrons and atoms (ions) in metals, the surface plasmon mode has a high intrinsic loss and low value, which limits further investigation and their potential applications.…”

“…Strong coupling between a plasmonic cavity and a molecule not only attracts interest in the fundamental study of quantum electrodynamic phenomenon, but also has a bright prospect in quantum information processing [2123]. Plasmonic cavities, which can significantly enhance the strength of the light-matter interaction, are an appropriate candidate to achieve the strong coupling at room temperature [2426]. However, a single molecule coupling with a plasmonic cavity is a huge challenge in both theory and experiment, which is difficult to manipulate the position of the molecule in the coupling system.…”
