Abstract

Bu makalede; ışık–madde etkileşimini iyileştirmek için, bir boyutlu fotonik kristal dalga klavuzu ve plazmonik bileşik nano-sistemden oluşan hibrit fotonik-plazmonik bir yapı dizaynı sunulmaktadır. Fotonik kristal nanohüzme, ışık dalgalarının zamansal olarak yüksek derecede hapsedilmesini sağlarken; altın nano-parçacığın yüzey plazmonlarının rezonatörün kavite modu ile eşleşmesi sonucu; çok küçük bir hacimde güçlü bir şekilde sınırlandırılmış ışık dalgalarının optik alanı yoğunlaştırdığı gösterilmektedir. Işık–madde etkileşimindeki iyileşme faktörü; nümerik olarak elde edilmiş sonuçlar kullanılarak, tek-atom pekişim parametreleri aracılığı ile incelenmiş, plazmonik nanoparçacığın varlığında önemli ölçüde azalan mod hacminin sonucunda 14 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Buna ek olarak, bu makalede sunulan teorik model ve hesaplama prosedürlerinin, hibrit fotonik-plazmonik rezonatörlere dayalı verimli kuantum cihazların üretimine öncülük ettiği gösterilmektedir.

Stongly Confined Electromagnetic Waves in a Hybrid Photonic–Plasmonic Resonator for Enhancing Light–Matter Interaction

Abstract

In this paper, a 1D photonic crystal waveguide and a plasmonic compound nano-system are utilized to design a hybrid photonic-plasmonic device for enhancement of light–matter interaction. Strongly localized light waves in a very small volume intensify the optical field, via surface plasmons due to presence of a gold nanoparticle, which interacts with the resonator’s cavity mode while the photonic crystal nanobeam ensures a high temporal confinement. The enhancement factor of light–matter interaction in the hybrid resonator is investigated through the single-atom cooperativity parameters based on numerically obtained results, which is calculated to be 14 as a result of the considerably reduced optical mode volume in the presence of the plasmonic nanoparticle. Additionally, the theoretical models and calculation procedures, presented in this paper, are demonstrated to be pioneering for the fabrication of efficient quantum devices based on hybrid photonic-plasmonic resonators.
