Fabrication of Plasmonics nanostructures 3. Applications of plasmonics: Stained glass, Notre Dame de Paris, 1250
7 Why plasmonics? 7 The speed of photonics The size of electronics High transparency of dielectrics like optical fibre Data transport over long distances Very high data rate Nanoscale data storage Limited speed due to interconnect Delay times Brongersma, M.L. & Shalaev, V.M. The case for plasmonics. Science 328, (2010). To replace slow electronic with fast photonic devices
8 Definition of Plasmonics 8 Metallic nanostructures = the field of plasmonics Not the confinment of electrons or holes as in semiconductors dots but Electrodynamics effect Modification of the dielectric environment How does plasmonic material look like? Metallic thin film Metallic nanoparticle Metallic nanorod Metallic nanoshell Different point of view of SURFACE PLASMON: Lycurgus cup (British Museum, London, UK). Electrodynamic: surface wave like in radiowave propagation along the earth Optics: modes of an interface Solid-state physics: collective oscillations of electrons
9 Concept of polariton 9 Elementary excitations: Phonons (lattice vibrations) Plasmons (collective electron oscillations) Polaritons: Commonly called coupled state between an elementary excitation and a photon = light-matter interaction In metal: coupled state between a plasmon and a photon= plasmon polariton In ionic crystal : coupled state between a phonon and a photon = phonon polariton In semiconductor: coupled state between an electron-hole pair = exciton polariton plasmon polariton resonance positions in vaccum Bulk metal Metal surface Localized surface of a metal particle Some materials are taken from lectures located on L.

12 The dielectric constant 12 ω > ω p ε m 1 volume plasmon polariton ω < ω p ε m < 0 wavevector of light in the medium is imaginary no propagating electromagnetic modes in bulk
13 Drude model (1900) 13 The model, which is an application of kinetic theory, assumes that the microscopic behavior of electrons in a solid may be treated classically and looks much like a pinball machine, with a sea of constantly jittering electrons bouncing and re-bouncing off heavier, relatively immobile positive ions Dielectric constant: Strong frequency dependence meaning dispersion 1/γ is the relaxation time of 10 fs for noble metals For a non-lossy model γ = 0 The damping constant γ is related to the average collision time interactions with the lattice vibrations: electron-phonon scattering. rachel.grange@uni-jena.de Introduction to surface plasmon theory, J.-J. Greffet Lecture 05
14 Concept of polariton 14 plasmon polariton resonance positions in vaccum Bulk metal Metal surface
15 Surface Plasmon Polariton (SPP) 15 Special case when the charges are confined to the surface of a metal SPP only exist for TM (p) polarization rachel.grange@uni-jena.de Lecture 05

17 Plasmon 17 Terahertz range : ( Hz), and the low frequency edge of the far-infrared light band, 3000 GHz ( Hz) rachel.grange@uni-jena.de Lecture 05
18 Plasmon = collective oscillations of electrons 18 n free electron per unit volume Gauss theorem: Newton equation: ON: Displacement of electrons which cancel the field inside the metal OFF: electrons inside the metal accelerated by the surface charges Plasma frequency for a film infinite surface oscillations For a nanosphere Oscillations due to an electric field caused by all the electrons
19 Non lossy Drude model (1900) 19 Semi-infinite geometry: Energy and momentum must be conserved : light cannot be coupled directly. Finite geometry: Momentum conservation is possible when light is coupled to the localized plasmon excitations of a small metal particle = optical antennas resonances
20 Coupling of light into surface plasmon is then tricky 20
21 From bulk to surface plasmons 21 plasmon polariton resonance positions in vaccum Bulk metal Metal surface Localized surface of a metal particle Surface Plasmon polariton SPP are 2D, dispersive EM waves propagating at the interface conductor-dielectric Localized surface plasmon LSP are non-propagating excitations of the conduction electrons of a metallic nanostructure coupled to an EM field.
22 From bulk to surface plasmons 22 plasmon polariton resonance positions in vaccum Localized surface of a metal particle The curved surface of the nanostructure allows the excitation of the LSP by 3D light The resonance falls into the visible region for Au and Ag nanoparticles Localized surface plasmon LSP are non-propagating excitations of the conduction electrons of a metallic nanostructure coupled to an EM field.

24 Localized surface plasmon in nanoparticles 24 No wavevector or special geometry, but absorption of light with the right plasmon band 1. Spheres Absorption within a narrow wavelength range The maximum of absorption depends on the size, the shape of the nanoparticles and the surrounding medium Small shift for particle smaller than 25 nm, red shift for bigger nanoparticles J. a Fan, C. Wu, K. Bao, J. Bao, R. Bardhan, N. J. Halas, V. N. Manoharan, P. Nordlander, G. Shvets, and F. Capasso, Self-assembled plasmonic nanoparticle clusters., Science, vol. 328, no. 5982, pp , May 2010.
25 Absorption & Scattering 25 Light passing through a typical 30nm spherical silver (Ag) colloid appears yellow-green due to the fact that silver particles of this size absorb light in the violet-blue region. Spherical gold (Au) nanoparticle colloids of similar sizes appear red, absorbing light maximally in the green region (Stockman Physics Today 2011). Extinction = absorption + scattering but scattering dominate for small particle Ag Au 400 nm (blue) 530nm (green) Wavelength Dark field image : only the light that is scattered Direct light image : the resonant color is absorbed, thus the rest is transmitted
26 Absorption & Scattering 26 A famous example is the Lycurgus cup (Roman empire, 4 th century AD)f green color when observing in reflecting light it shines in red in transmitting light conditions Dark field image : only the light that is scattered Direct light image : the resonant color is absorbed, thus the rest is transmitted
27 Localized surface plasmon in nanoparticles Spheres From classical electrodynamic: resonance condition Polarizability of a sphere: εr = -2, true in the visible range for noble metal Microscopic view: 1 atom Take the simplest atom: hydrogen Macroscopic view: N atoms You end up with a dipole moment Put it into an electric field p = α E where α is the answer of the atom to electric field the macroscopic dipole moment (per unit volume) is called the POLARIZATION : P = χε E 1 0 Electric susceptibility is a measure of how easily a dielectric material can be polarized = εr -1
28 Localized surface plasmon in nanoparticles Wires, rods or rices Prolate spheroid a, b as axis εr = -2 (wavelength of 400 nm) to =-21.5 (wavelength of 700 nm) Two plasmon bands for nanorods: long and short axis Transverse mode is close to nanoparticles and longitudinal mode is red shifted
29 Localized surface plasmon in nanoparticles 29 No wavevector or special geometry, but absorption of light with the right plasmon band 2. Wires, rods or rices Two plasmon bands for nanorods: long and short axis Transverse mode is close to nanoparticles and longitudinal mode is red shifted
30 Localized surface plasmon in nanoparticles Nanoshell 60 nm core radius 20 to 5 nm shell thickness For a constant core, a thinner shell shift the plasmon resonance to the red For a constant core/shell ratio, small particles predominantly aborbs light and big particles scattered light. Over the dipole limit, multiple plasmon resonance occurs A broad spectral region is covered
31 Type of nanoantennas 31
32 Theoretical models to calculate the radiated field 32 Dipole approximation (or quasi-static) Mie scattering
33 Light Scattering and Absorption Theory 33 Extinction cross-section (cm 2 ) = absorption cs + sctattering cs 1. Dipole approximation (or quasi-static) particle much smaller than the wavelength σ scat σ abs total scattered or removed energy rate
34 Light Scattering and Absorption Theory Mie scattering Maxwell's equations are solved in spherical co-ordinates through separation of variables The incident plane wave is expanded in Legendre polynomials so the solutions inside and outside the sphere can be matched at the boundary Bessel and Hankel functions are solution are also used in the complex expression for simplification Legendre polynomials Bessel and Hankel functions

37 Liquid chemical synthesis 37 Before the addition of the reducing agent, the gold is in solution in the Au +3 form. When the reducing agent is added, gold atoms are formed in the solution, and their concentration rises rapidly until the solution exceeds saturation. Particles then form in a process called nucleation. The remaining dissolved gold atoms bind to the nucleation sites and growth occurs.
38 Liquid chemical synthesis 38 Reduction is the gain of electrons or a decrease in oxidation state by a molecule, atom, or ion. Turkevich method hot chlorauric acid with small amounts of sodium citrate solution The colloidal gold will form because the citrate ions act as both a reducing agent, and a capping agent. J.

60 Applications: 3. Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) 60 What is Raman scattering? inelastic scattering of a photon
61 Applications: 3. Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) 61 What is Raman scattering? The Raman effect corresponds to the absorption and subsequent emission of a photon via an intermediate quantum state of a material. The intermediate state can be either a "real", or a virtual state. The Raman interaction leads to two possible outcomes: the material absorbs energy and the emitted photon has a lower energy than the absorbed photon. This outcome is labeled Stokes Raman scattering. the material loses energy and the emitted photon has a higher energy than the absorbed photon. This outcome is labeled anti-stokes Raman scattering.
62 Applications: 3. Surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) 62 Raman scattering Fluorescence Infrared absorption Term paper for Physics 598 OS, Shan Jiang, University of Illinois Fluorescence : the incident light is completely absorbed and the system is transferred to an excited state from which it can go to various lower states only after a certain resonance Raman effect : can take place for any frequency of the incident light not a resonant effect
