  1. Nanophotonics II • Plasmonics • Biophotonics • Exotics

  2. Plasmonics!

  3. What is a surface plasmon polariton? Transverse EM wave coupled to a plasmon (wave of charges on a metal/dielectric interface) = SPP (surface plasmon polariton) Note: the wave has to have the component of E transverse to the surface (be TM-polarized). Polariton – any coupled oscillation of photons and dipoles in a medium

  4. Barnes et al. Nature 2003 Surface plasmons Plasmons can be confined to nanoscale and propagate along nanostrips, through nanoholes, etc. See derivation of plasmon dispersion on white board

  5. Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) in different materials Calculated dispersion of surface plasmon-polaritons propagating at a Ag/air, Ag/glass, and Ag/Si interface, respectively.

  6. Plasmon resonance frequency strongly depends on geometry

  7. Plasmon absorption by metallic nanoparticles in stained glass windows, glass cups, ceramic pots

  8. The shape of the nanoparticle extinction and scattering spectra, and in particular the peak wavelength λmax, depends on nanoparticle composition, size, shape, orientation and local dielectric environment. Effect of size and shape on LS PR extinction spectrum for silver nanoprisms and nanodiscs formed by nanosphere lithography. The high-frequency signal on the spectra is an interference pattern from the reflection at the front and back surfaces of the mica. Anker et al., Nature Mat. 2008

  11. Note: we cannot excite SPP by simply illuminating the surface! i ki kSPP Excitation condition Impossible to satisfy! ki is always less than kSPP Calculated dispersion of surface plasmon-polaritons propagating at a Ag/air, Ag/glass, and Ag/Si interface, respectively. Maier & Atwater, JAP 2005

  12. Excitation of SPP: Kretschmann configuration Note: these SPP are not particularly small-size

  13. Nevertheless, this technique is simple and can be used when we don’t care about having short SPP wavelength Chem-Bio Sensing in the Kretschmann configuration Example of SPR spectrum Note: the angle is in the TIR range!

  15. SPR systems can detect kinetic information, such as the rate of complex formation and disintegration of biological species. Example of kinetic measurement enabled by spatial imaging SPR.

  16. Coupling to SPP is achieved when Exciting SPP (or any mode of your choice) by scattering light off grating i This is effectively a (quasi-)momentum conservation d ki kSPP Grating changes longitudinal wave vector of a photon by

  17. Grating can be also used to extract SPPs: Bozhevolnyi 2007

  18. + Kg = kout Photon momentum conservation in photonic crystals d kin When Kg = 2kin: incoming wave is reflected

  19. Localized (near-field) excitation of SPPs by a metallic tip of a near-field microscope illuminated by laser light Atwater et al. 2007

  20. Detection of SPPs by a tip of near-field microscope Sondergaard & Bozhevolnyi 2007

  21. Detection of SPPs with photon scanning tunneling microscope (PSTM) Imaging SPP with PSTM Zia et al, Mat. Today 2006

  22. Propagation of a SP along a 40-nm thick, 2.5-m wide gold stripe, imaged by PSTM … … and through the right-angle bend Weeber et al. 2007

  23. Elements of integrated photonic chips based on SPP

  24. Plasmon waveguides made from chains of nanoparticles Hohenau et al. 2007

  30. THE DREAM: Plasmonic chips Plasmonic switches (“plasmonsters”) Slot waveguide H. Atwater, Sci. Am. 2007

  31. Invent your own technique for excitation, detection, waveguiding of plasmons!

  32. Biophotonics

  33. Evanescent field sensors with substrate sensitized to a specific molecule

  34. Adsorbed molecules change the excitation angle of EM mode

  35. Monitoring of three-step oligonucleotide hybridization reaction

  36. Near-field microscopy for imaging nanoobjects and single molecules SNOM PSTM Tip collects the evanescent light created by laser illuminating the sample from the back Tip illuminates the sample; Scattered light is collected

  37. Note: your tool (PSTM, NSOM etc.) can strongly perturb your sample and distort its properties. When you do experiment, make sure you understand what you measure. Always have a reference case to compare with and a control case for which you know what results you should obtain.

  38. Nano-Biosensors based on localized plasmons • Luminescence of sensitized metal nanoparticles • Surface enhanced Raman scattering and CARS

  39. Light incident on the nanoparticles induces the conduction electrons in them to oscillate collectively with a resonant frequency that depends on the nanoparticles’ size, shape and composition. As a result of these LSPR modes, the nanoparticles absorb and scatter light so intensely that single nanoparticles are easily observed by eye using dark-field (optical scattering) microscopy. This phenomenon enables noble-metal nanoparticles to serve as extremely intense labels for immunoassays, biochemical sensors and surface-enhanced spectroscopies.

  40. The shape of the nanoparticle extinction and scattering spectra, and in particular the peak wavelength λmax, depends on nanoparticle composition, size, shape, orientation and local dielectric environment. Effect of size and shape on LS PR extinction spectrum for silver nanoprisms and nanodiscs formed by nanosphere lithography. The high-frequency signal on the spectra is an interference pattern from the reflection at the front and back surfaces of the mica. Anker et al., Nature Mat. 2008

  41. What to observe?? (a) shift of the SPR spectrum When molecules bind to a nanoparticle, the SPR peak wavelength is shifted: Anker et al., Nature Mat. 2008

  42. Anker et al., Nature Mat. 2008

  43. What to observe?? (b) increase in temperature caused by optically heating the nanoparticle and its environment You can track these particles by scattering the probe beam off a thermally induced change in the refractive index! Anker et al., Nature Mat. 2008

T he reflection spectrum is shown in the insets, with minimal reflection corresponding to maximum LSPR induced absorbance and scattering. Anker et al., Nature Mat. 2008
