Optical diffraction radiation from a dielectric and a metal nanowire excited by a modulated electron beam
摘要： The optical diffraction radiation that accompanies the motion of a modulated beam of electrons near a dielectric and silver nanowire scatterers is investigated in the two-dimensional formulation. Our goal is to compute the field in the near and far zones and analyze how it depends on electron beam parameters. We demonstrate the excitation of internal resonances of such a scatterer that can be useful in the design of nanoscale non-invasive beam position monitors.

Sensitivity enhancement of surface plasmon resonance biosensor based on graphene and barium titanate layers
摘要： A surface plasmon resonance-based biosensor, consisting prism, silver, barium titanate (BaTiO3) and graphene layers, is presented by using angular interrogation. The structure is specially designed to further enhance the sensitivity and to decrease the full width at half maximum (FWHM) thereby improving the sensor performance. Theoretical analysis shows that the highest sensitivity can reach at 257°/RIU where the thickness of Ag layer is 45 nm with 10 nm BaTiO3 and one graphene layer. Compared with existing biosensors, the proposed biosensor exhibits higher sensitivity, lower FWHM and two times better preformation in the quality factor of the sensor, which would make our design have more applications in the field of biosensors.

High Sensitivity Photonic Crystal Fiber Refractive Index Sensor with Gold Coated Externally Based on Surface Plasmon Resonance
摘要： In this paper we propose a gold-plated photonic crystal fiber (PCF) refractive index sensor based on surface plasmon resonance (SPR), in which gold is coated on the external surface of PCF for easy fabrication and practical detection. The finite element method (FEM) is used for the performance analysis, and the numerical results show that the thickness of the gold film, the refractive index of the analyte, the radius of the air hole in the first layer, the second layer, and the central air hole can affect the sensing properties of the sensor. By optimizing the sensor structure, the maximum wavelength sensitivity can reach 11000 nm/RIU and the maximum amplitude sensitivity can reach 641 RIU?1. Due to its high sensitivity, the proposed sensor can be used for practical biological and chemical sensing.

Electron transfer during binding processes between thiolate molecules and Au nano-islands
摘要： We investigated electron transfer during the time-dependent binding processes between thiolate molecules and Au nano-islands by observing tunneling current with an interdigitated microelectrode supporting the sputtered Au nano-islands (IME@AuNI). The time-dependent optical and electrical signal variation during the binding process was examined for five kinds of thiolates. As the immersion time was prolonged, the optical absorbance increased, whereas the current passing through the IME@AuNI decreased. Importantly, the spectral and current characteristics depended on the thiolate structure, because of the formation of capping layer in accordance with thiolate structure. These results are mainly attributed to synergistic effects of electron transfer from Au nano-islands to thiolate molecules and bridging effects of thiolate molecules among Au nano-islands.

Transition from Two-photon Absorption to Saturable Absorption in Gold Patterned Ruby Thin Film
摘要： Nonlinear behaviour of gold micro disks patterned Ruby film has been investigated via Z-scan technique. Open Z-scan was performed for Ruby and Ruby/gold thin film using 532 nm Laser source. Two-photon absorption (TPA) and Saturable absorption (SA) have been observed in pure Ruby and Ruby/gold thin film respectively. The expression for normalized transmittance in open Z-scan was obtained by Gaussian decomposition method for fitting the open. The values for nonlinear absorption coefficient (β) for Ruby/gold (7.41 × 10?7??/??) was two orders of magnitude higher than that of Ruby (1.41 × 10?9??/??). Further, TPA and SA were confirmed by open Z-scan on these films, performed by 633 nm Laser source.

Properties of Au incorporated In2O3 films
摘要： Effect of gold loading on the structural, morphological, optical and electrical properties of RF magnetron sputtered In2O3 films is discussed. Annealing is done to analyse the properties of heavily Au loaded In2O3 film after thermal treatment. Au acts as a nucleation centre and improves the crystalline quality of cubic bixbyite In2O3 films with moderate Au loading concentration. FESEM and AFM images of the as-deposited films present smooth surface morphology with a dense distribution of small grains. Random distribution of Au nanorods can be seen in the FESEM image of the 10 wt% Au incorporated film annealed at a temperature of 400 °C. The present study reveals the formation of smooth, crack-free, crystalline In2O3 films with Au incorporation. XPS analysis suggests the predominance of metallic state of Au in the Au loaded films. Absorption studies show an enhanced absorption in both as-deposited and annealed Au loaded films. Transmittance of In2O3 films is considerably modified but electrical properties are not much modified by Au incorporation. Enhancement in UV luminescence emission of In2O3 films ~378 nm is observed with Au incorporation up to 3 wt%. Intense UV emission in Au incorporated films opens a possibility of using these films for UV light emission applications.

Wavelength and shape dependent strong-field photoemission from silver nanotips
摘要： We study optical field emission from silver nanotips, showing the combined influence of the illumination wavelength and the exact shape of the nanotip on the strong-field response. This is particularly relevant in the case of FIB milled nano tips, where the nanotip fabrication capabilities could become a new ingredient for the study of strong-field physics. The influence of the thermal load on the nanotip and its effect on the emission is studied as well by switching the repetition rate of the laser source from 1 kHz to 62 MHz, showing a clear transition towards the quenching of the strong-field emission.

Ion beam engineering of morphological, structural, optical and photocatalytic properties of Ag-TiO2-PVA nanocomposite thin film
摘要： Development of plasmonic nanocomposite coatings with tunable optical and photocatalytic properties is important for diverse technological applications. In this paper, we report modifications in the microstructural, optical and photocatalytic properties of Ag-TiO2-PVA nanocomposite thin film by 8 MeV Si3+ ion irradiation. Ag-TiO2-PVA nanocomposite thin films on silica glass were prepared by a combination of sol-gel method and spin coating. Ion irradiation induced morphological evolution of Ag-TiO2-PVA thin film was studied by atomic force microscopy and field emission scanning electron microscopy, which revealed interesting changes in the size distribution of nanostructures with increasing ion fluence. Ion irradiation of the Ag-TiO2-PVA thin film resulted in the emergence of SPR peak of Ag nanoparticles at 456 nm, which shifted to 446 nm along with enhancement in intensity as the ion fluence was increased. Significant enhancement in the photocatalytic efficiency of Ag-TiO2-PVA nanocomposite thin film for degradation of methylene blue was observed upon ion irradiation at 1 × 1013 ions/cm2. The origins of microstructural, morphological, optical and plasmonic modifications and enhancement in the photocatalytic efficiency of Ag-TiO2-PVA nanocomposite thin films have been discussed.

Metal-insulator-metal nano square ring resonator for gas sensing applications
摘要： In this paper, three designs of Square Ring resonator (SRR) based on metal-insulator-metal (MIM) WG are reported. The transmission spectra and electric field distribution of the sensor structure are simulated using finite element method (FEM). The effect of structural parameters on the spectral characteristics and sensing performance are investigated comprehensively. The maximum achieved sensitivity and figure of merit of the sensor reached 1320 nm/RIU and 16.7, respectively. Due to the high performance and easy fabrication, this kind of plasmonic structures can find noteworthy applications in integrated optical circuits and on-chip nano-sensors.

Image charge effect on the light emission of rutile TiO <sub/>2</sub> (110) induced by a scanning tunneling microscope
摘要： The plasmon-enhanced light emission of rutile TiO2(110) surface has been investigated by a low-temperature scanning tunneling microscope (STM). We found that the photon emission arises from the inelastic electron tunneling between the STM tip and the conduction band or defect states of TiO2(110). In contrast to the Au(111) surface, the maximum photon energy as a function of the bias voltage clearly deviates from the linear scaling behavior, suggesting the non-negligible effect of the STM tip on the band structure of TiO2. By performing differential conductance (dI/dV) measurements, it was revealed that such a deviation is not related to the tip-induced band bending, but is attributed to the image charge effect of the metal tip, which significantly shifts the band edges of the TiO2(110) towards the Femi level (EF) during the tunneling process. This work not only sheds new lights onto the understanding of plasmon-enhanced light emission of semiconductor surfaces, but also opens up a new avenue for engineering the plasmon-mediated interfacial charge transfer in molecular and semiconducting materials.
