Light-matter momentum transfer in plasmonic materials is theoretically discussed in the framework of plasmonic pressure mechanism taking into account non-equilibrium electron dynamics and thermalization process. We show that our approach explains the experimentally observed relationship between the plasmon-related electromotive force and absorption and allows one to correctly predict the magnitude of the plasmon drag emf in flat metal films. We extend our theory to metal films with modulated profiles and show that the simple relationship between plasmonic energy and momentum transfer holds at relatively small amplitudes of height modulation and an approximation of laminar electron drift. Theoretical groundwork is laid for further investigations of shape-controlled plasmon drag in nanostructured metal.
Plasmon decay via the surface or interface is a critical process for practical energy conversion and plasmonic catalysis. However, the relationship between plasmon damping and the coupling between the plasmon and 2D materials is still unclear. The sp
The generation of significant photocurrents observed in plasmonic metasurfaces is interesting from a fundamental point of view and promising for applications in plasmon-based electronics and plasmonic sensors with compact electrical detection. We sho
The phase delay of a local electric field, being well-known in plasmonic nanostructures, has seldom been investigated to modulate the plasmon-exciton interaction. Here, with the single-particle spectroscopy method, we experimentally investigate the p
Carbon nanotubes provide a rare access point into the plasmon physics of one-dimensional electronic systems. By assembling purified nanotubes into uniformly sized arrays, we show that they support coherent plasmon resonances, that these plasmons enha
Quadrupole topological insulator is a symmetry-protected higher-order topological phase with intriguing topology of Wannier bands, which, however, has not yet been realized in plasmonic metamaterials. Here, we propose a lattice of plasmon-polaritonic
