EMISSION IN NANOSCALE STRUCTURES VIA NANOCAVITY PLASMONS

摘要

Plasmonic nanoscale devices with increased emissions are disclosed. Highly concentrated fields of plasmonic nanocavities are integrated with a core to alter the excited-state optical processes. A plasmonic device (e.g., a nanowire) is created using a direct or indirect bandgap material core, an interlayer and a metallic shell.
