By analogy to the three dimensional optical bottle beam, we introduce the plasmonic bottle beam: a two dimensional surface wave which features a lattice of plasmonic bottles, i.e. alternating regions of bright focii surrounded by low intensities. The two-dimensional bottle beam is created by the interference of a non-diffracting beam, a cosine-Gaussian beam, and a plane wave, thus giving rise to a non-diffracting complex intensity distribution. By controlling the propagation constant of the cosine-Gauss beam, the size and number of plasmonic bottles can be engineered. The two dimensional lattice of hot spots formed by this new plasmonic wave could have applications in plasmonic trapping.

Optical bottle beams can be used to trap atoms and small low-index particles. We introduce a figure of merit for optical bottle beams, specifically in the context of optical traps, and use it to compare optical bottle-beam traps obtained by three dif
ferent methods. Using this figure of merit and an optimization algorithm, we identified optical bottle-beam traps based on a Gaussian beam illuminating a metasurface that are superior in terms of power efficiency than existing approaches. We numerically demonstrate a silicon metasurface for creating an optical bottle-beam trap.
We predict and experimentally observe three-dimensional microscale nonparaxial optical bottle beams based on the generation of a caustic surface under revolution. Such bottle beams exhibit high contrast between the surrounding surface and the effecti
vely void interior. Via caustic engineering we can precisely control the functional form of the high intensity surface to achieve microscale bottle beams with longitudinal and transverse dimensions of the same order of magnitude. Although, in general, the phase profile at the input plane can be computed numerically, we find closed form expressions for bottle beams with various type of surfaces both in real and in the Fourier space.
We investigate theoretically frequency comb generation in a bottle microresonator accounting for the azimuthal and axial degrees of freedom. We first identify a discrete set of the axial nonlinear modes of a bottle microresonator that appear as tilte
d resonances bifurcating from the spectrum of linear axial modes. We then study azimuthal modulational instability of these modes and show that families of 2D soliton states localized both azimuthally and axially bifurcate from them at critical pump frequencies. Depending on detuning, 2D solitons can be either stable, or form persistent breathers, chaotic spatio-temporal patterns, or exhibit collapse-like evolution.
Plasmonic distributed-feedback lasers based on a two-dimensional periodic array of metallic nanostructures are the main candidate for nanoscale sources of coherent electromagnetic field. Strong localization of the electromagnetic field and the large
radiation surface are good opportunities for achieving an ultrashort response time to the external actions and creating beam directionality. At the same time, the investigation of such a system is a challenging problem. In this paper, we present an exhaustive study of the operation of a two-dimensional plasmonic distributed-feedback laser. We show that the complex structure of the modes of a periodic plasmonic array and the nonlinear interaction between the modes through the active medium lead to a new effect, namely, mode cooperation. Mode cooperation is manifested as the generation of the modes in an allowed band with a high threshold instead of modes localized near the band gap with a low threshold. Suppression of lasing of the modes at the edge of the band gap results in widening of the radiation pattern above the generation threshold. This paves the way for effective control and manipulation of the radiation pattern of nanoscale systems, which is of great importance for applications in spectroscopy and optoelectronics.
Plasmonic waveguides are an essential element of nanoscale coherent sources, including nanolasers and four-wave mixing (FWM) devices. Here we report how the design of the plasmonic waveguide needs to be guided by the ultimate application. This contra
sts with traditional approaches in which the waveguide is considered in isolation. We find that hybrid plasmonic waveguides, with a nonlinear material sandwiched between the metal substrate and a high-index layer, are best suited for FWM applications, whereas metallic wedges are preferred in nanolasers. We also find that in plasmonic nanolasers high-index buffer layers perform better than more traditional low-index buffers.
