As an interesting surface plasmon phenomenon discovered several years ago, electromagnetic field redistribution in nanoparticle dimer on film system provides a novel thought to enhance the light power on a plain film which could been widely used in surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), solar cells, photo-catalysis, etc. Homodimers on film are mainly investigated in past years, while the properties of heterodimers on film are still unclear. In this work, size difference induced electromagnetic field redistribution in Ag nanoparticle dimer on Au film system is investigated first. The results obtained from finite element method indicate that the smaller nanoparticle has much greater ability to focus light energy on Au film, which even reached more than 5 time compared to the larger one. Further researches indicate that this energy focusing ability has a strong relationship to the wavelength and diameter ration in dimer. Similar focusing phenomenon is found in the system of thick wire-smaller particle on film. Later, the SERS spectra collected in the small nanoparticle-large nanowire system provide an experimental evidence for this theoretic predication. Our results strengthen the understanding of surface plasmon on plane film and have potential application prospects in the surface plasmon related fields.

Rigorous electrodynamical simulations based on the nonlinear Drude model are performed to investigate the influence of strong coupling on high harmonic generation by periodic metal gratings. It is shown that a thin dispersive material with a third or der nonlinearity strongly coupled to surface plasmon-polaritons significantly affects even harmonics generated solely by the metal. The physical nature of this effect is explained using a simple analytical model and further supported by numerical simulations. Furthermore, the behavior of the second and third harmonics is investigated as a function of various physical parameters of the model material system, revealing highly complex dynamics. The nonlinear optical response of 2D few-layer WS2 with both second and third order susceptibilities coupled to a periodic plasmonic grating is shown to have a significant effect on the second harmonic generation of the metal.
We report the creation and real-space observation of magnetic structures with well-defined topological properties and a lateral size as low as about 150 nm. They are generated in a thin ferrimagnetic film by ultrashort single optical laser pulses. Th anks to their topological properties, such structures can be classified as Skyrmions of a particular type that does not require an externally applied magnetic field for stabilization. Besides Skyrmions, we are able to generate magnetic features with topological characteristics that can be tuned by changing the laser fluence. The stability of such features is accounted for by an analytical model based on the interplay between the exchange and the magnetic dipole-dipole interactions
We propose a new method to generate magnetic skyrmions through spin-wave focusing in chiral ferromagnets.A lens is constructed to focus spin waves by a curved interface between two ferromagnetic thin films with different perpendicular magnetic anisot ropies. Based on the principle of identical magnonic path length, we derive the lens contour that can be either elliptical or hyperbolical depending on the magnon refractive index. Micromagnetic simulations are performed to verify the theoretical design. It is found that under proper condition magnetic skyrmions emerge near the focus point of the lens where the spin-wave intensity has been significantly enhanced. A close investigation shows that a magnetic droplet first forms and then converts to the skyrmion accompanying with a change of topological charge. Phase diagram about the amplitude and duration-time of the exciting field for skyrmion generation is obtained. Our findings would be helpful for designing novel spintronic devices combining the advantages of skyrmionics and magnonics.
Recent advances in bottom-up growth are giving rise to a range of new two-dimensional nanostructures. Hall effect measurements play an important role in their electrical characterization. However, size constraints can lead to device geometries that d eviate significantly from the ideal of elongated Hall bars with currentless contacts. Many devices using these new materials have a low aspect ratio and feature metal Hall probes that overlap with the semiconductor channel. This can lead to a significant distortion of the current flow. We present experimental data from InAs 2D nanofin devices with different Hall probe geometries to study the influence of Hall probe length and width. We use finite-element simulations to further understand the implications of these aspects and expand the scope to contact resistance and sample aspect ratios. Our key finding is that invasive probes lead to a significant underestimation in the measured Hall voltage, typically of the order of 40-80%. This in turn leads to a subsequent proportional overestimation of carrier concentration and an underestimation of mobility
In this paper, we report theoretical investigation on excitation of surface plexciton wave at interface of a metal and a columnar thin film infiltrated with J-aggregate dyes using transfer matrix method in Kretschmann configuration. The results revea l the regime of the plasmon - exciton interaction can change from weak to strong by tuning structural parameters. We find Rabi splitting energies between 204 -378 meV corresponding to the time period 11-20 fs which includes to the fast energy transfer from surface plasmon polaritons to excitons. The phase speed and propagation length of surface plexcitonic waves were in the range of 0.4 to 0.9c and 0.4 to 6 {mu}m. The time-averaged Poynting vector of surface plexciton waves shows the localization of them at interface of plasmonic and excitonic mediums.
