In this Letter we show that the strong coupling between a disordered set of molecular emitters and surface plasmons leads to the formation of spatially coherent hybrid states extended on acroscopic distances. Young type interferometric experiments performed on a system of J-aggregated dyes spread on a silver layer evidence the coherent emission from different molecular emitters separated by several microns. The coherence is absent in systems in the weak coupling regime demonstrating the key role of the hybridization of the molecules with the plasmon.

In this paper the formation mechanisms of the femtosecond laser-induced periodic surface structures (LIPSS) are discussed. One of the most frequently-used theories explains the structures by interference between the incident laser beam and surface plasmon-polariton waves. The latter is most commonly attributed to the coupling of the incident laser light to the surface roughness. We demonstrate that this excitation mechanism of surface plasmons contradicts to the results of laser-ablation experiments. As an alternative approach to the excitation of LIPSS we analyse development of hydrodynamic instabilities in the melt layer.
In plasmonic chirality, the phenomenon of circular dichroism for achiral nanoparitcles caused by Coulomb interaction between metal nanoparticles (NPs) and chiral molecules have been studied. At the same time, under the resonance condition, the dye molecules and metal NPs will produce huge Rabi splitting due to strong coupling. If the chiral molecules are at the resonance of the plasmon, what will happen for the strong interaction between the plasmon and molecules with chirality introduced? In this paper, we investigate a spherical core-shell model and analyze its spectral phenomena under the excitation of circularly polarized light (CPL). Based on Coulomb interaction between NPs and chiral molecules, we will show how the various factors affect the strong coupling. We have obtained three mechanisms for the interaction between plasmons and chiral molecules: strong coupling (Rabi splitting up to 243mev), enhanced absorption and induced transparency. The interaction between CPL and chiral molecules with the opposite chirality to CPL is stronger than that of the same chirality, and the line width of the two peaks is closer than that of the same chirality, which shows that for the Rabi splitting with chirality, there are deeper mechanisms for the interaction. This result will be helpful for further research on the interaction between plasmon and molecules with chirality.
Magneto-optical phenomena such as the Faraday and Kerr effects play a decisive role for establishing control over polarization and intensity of optical fields propagating through a medium. Intensity effects where the direction of light emission depends on the orientation of the external magnetic field are of particular interest as they can be used for routing the light. We report on a new class of transverse emission phenomena for light sources located in the vicinity of a surface, where directionality is established perpendicularly to the externally applied magnetic field. We demonstrate the routing of emission for excitons in a diluted-magnetic-semiconductor quantum well. The directionality is significantly enhanced in hybrid plasmonic semiconductor structures due to the generation of plasmonic spin fluxes at the metal-semiconductor interface.
The spectrum width can be narrowed to a certain degree by decreasing the coupling strength for the two-level emitter coupled to the propagating surface plasmon. But the width can not be narrowed any further because of the loss of the photon out of system by spontaneous emission from the emitter. Here we propose a new scheme to construct a narrow-band source via a one-dimensional waveguide coupling with a three-level emitter. It is shown that the reflective spectrum width can be narrowed avoiding the impact of the loss. This approach opens up the possibility of plasmonic ultranarrow single-photon source.
We present a method to implement 3-dimensional polariton confinement with in-situ spectral tuning of the cavity mode. Our tunable microcavity is a hybrid system consisting of a bottom semiconductor distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) with a cavity containing quantum wells (QWs) grown on top and a dielectric concave DBR separated by a micrometer sized gap. Nanopositioners allow independent positioning of the two mirrors and the cavity mode energy can be tuned by controlling the distance between them. When close to resonance we observe a characteristic anticrossing between the cavity modes and the QW exciton demonstrating strong coupling. For the smallest radii of curvature concave mirrors of 5.6 $mu$m and 7.5 $mu$m real-space polariton imaging reveals submicron polariton confinement due to the hemispherical cavity geometry.
