Light-induced magnetism describes the effect where a material is magnetized by an optical pulse. In transparent materials, optically-induced magnetization can be realized directly by circularly polarized light. Sometimes, in metallic materials, this type of magnetization also exists due to the microscopic solenoidal path of electrons driven by circ...

Diarylethene molecules used as molecular switches are envisioned as components of molecular electronic devices. These photochromic molecules exhibit high thermal stability, resistance to fatigue, and switching efficiency. Nevertheless, the switching of most diarylethenes (DAEs) is asymmetric: their photocycloreversion reaction possessing a much low...

Through the integration of a strongly coupled plasmonic nanoantenna array with a monolayer MoSe2, spatial maps of the photoluminescence (PL) are acquired on- and off-resonance to exhibit the role of the lattice plasmon modes on the enhancement of the PL from the MoSe2 monolayer. The on-resonance excitation of the hybrid nanostructure at 785 nm reve...

Here we suggest and realize an ultracompact plasmonic spectral-band demultiplexer for telecommunication wavelengths integrated onto an optical waveguide that couples two wavelength-encoded optical signals in the O- and the C-band in opposite directions of a silicon waveguide. In this way, we demonstrate a plasmonic key element for on-chip optical d...

In a standing wave optical cavity, the coupling of cavity modes, for example, through a nonlinear medium, results in a rich variety of nonlinear dynamical phenomena, such as frequency pushing and pulling, mode-locking and pulsing, modal instabilities, even complex chaotic behavior. Metallic nanowires of finite length support a hierarchy of longitud...

We study the emission of photoelectrons from plasmonic nanoparticles into a surrounding matrix. We consider two mechanisms of electron emission from the nanoparticles - surface and volume ones and use models for these two mechanisms which allow us to obtain analytical results for the photoelectron emission rate from a nanoparticle. Calculations hav...

The photo-induced collective heating enabled by a plasmonic nanoantenna array is for the first time harnessed for rapid concentration, manipulation and sorting of particles, with high throughput. This work could find application in biosensing, and surface enhanced spectroscopies © 2014 OSA.
