6th International Congress on Advanced Electromagnetic Materials in Microwaves and Optics (Metamaterials 2012) in the great Russian city of St. Petersburg. This event is organised by the Virtual Institute for Artifi cial Electromagnetic Materials and Metamaterials (Metamorphose VI) jointly with the National Research University of Information Technologies, Mechanics and Optics (ITMO) and St. Petersburg Electrotechnical University (ETU). The Congress series, initiated by the European Network of Excellence Metamorphose, is widely recognised as the prime event in the metamaterial community. Owing to the multidisciplinary nature of artifi cial electromagnetic materials, the Congress brings together researchers and engineers working in material science and electromagnetic theory, optics and microwaves, physics of solids and acoustics, nanofabrication and device design. This provides a unique forum for presenting the latest results in the explosively expanding fi elds of metamaterials and their applications. The good traditions of the Congress, established by its preceding editions, held in Rome (2007), Pamplona (2008), London (2009), Karlsruhe (2010) and Barcelona (2011), will be further strengthened and developed by the St. Petersburg event. The Congress programme covers a broad range of research in artifi cial electromagnetic materials and surfaces for radio, microwave, terahertz, and optical frequencies. The progress in acoustic, superconductor

The International Advisory Committee comprises three senior scientists (namely, Professors Zaanen, Buchner, and Saxena) and is a complementary body that assists the Management Committee of CCQCN in the research directions, hirings, twinning and workshops. More precisely, the scope of the IAC is to monitor the progress made during the implementation of the CCQCN project, and advice toward the most beneficial implementation of the project and on all aspects of the Center activities. The IAC assesses the evolution, achievements, success and/or possible problems of the project. The 2nd Advisory Report of the IAC takes into account the evolution, achievements, success and/or possible problems of CCQCN as revealed in the M13-M30 (M30=February 2016) period of the lifetime of the project. IAC members have visited the CCQCN on September 2013 (Prof. Zaanen and Prof. Saxena, attended the CCQCN Kick-off Meeting), September 2014 (Prof.

  • Plasmonic Nanocavity Modes: from Near-Field to Far-Field Radiation Nuttawut Kongsuwan, Angela Demetriadou, Matthew Horton, Rohit Chikkaraddy, Jeremy J
    pubs.acs.org/journal/apchd5 Article Plasmonic Nanocavity Modes: From Near-Field to Far-Field Radiation Nuttawut Kongsuwan, Angela Demetriadou, Matthew Horton, Rohit Chikkaraddy, Jeremy J. Baumberg,* and Ortwin Hess* Cite This: https://dx.doi.org/10.1021/acsphotonics.9b01445 Read Online ACCESS Metrics & More Article Recommendations *sı Supporting Information ABSTRACT: In the past decade, advances in nanotechnology have led to the development of plasmonic nanocavities that facilitate light−matter strong coupling in ambient conditions. The most robust example is the nanoparticle-on-mirror (NPoM) structure whose geometry is controlled with subnanometer precision. The excited plasmons in such nanocavities are extremely sensitive to the exact morphology of the nanocavity, giving rise to unexpected optical behaviors. So far, most theoretical and experimental studies on such nanocavities have been based solely on their scattering and absorption properties. However, these methods do not provide a complete optical description of the nanocavities. Here, the NPoM is treated as an open nonconservative system supporting a set of photonic quasinormal modes (QNMs). By investigating the morphology-dependent optical properties of nanocavities, we propose a simple yet comprehensive nomenclature based on spherical harmonics and report spectrally overlapping bright and dark nanogap eigenmodes. The near-field and far-field optical properties of NPoMs are explored and reveal intricate multimodal interactions. KEYWORDS: plasmonics, nanophotonics, nanocavities, quasinormal mode, near-to-far-field transformation etallic nanostructures have the ability to confine light resonances from far-field spectral peaks. Although significant M below the diffraction limit via the collective excitation of information can be obtained from the far-field spectra, they do conduction electrons, called localized surface plasmons.

We enhance the weak longitu- short optical pulse or high repetition rate signal generation at dinal self-mode-locking that is inherent to BALs by injecting a single optical 50-ps pulse, which triggers the output of a distinct high powers. regular train of 13-ps pulses. Modeling based on multimode In addition, fundamental questions arise from the fact that Maxwell–Bloch equations illustrates how the dynamic interaction the BALs emission does not only consist of many longitudinal of the injected pulse with the internal laser field efficiently couples modes, but each of these modes consists in fact of a multitude the longitudinal modes and synchronizes the output across the of different lateral modes typically up to the tenth order.
