We report on the resonant coupling between localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs) in nanostructured Ag films, and an adsorbed monolayer of Rhodamine 6G dye. Hybridization of the plasmons and molecular excitons creates new coupled polaritonic modes, which have been tuned by varying the LSPR wavelength. The resulting polariton dispersion curve shows an anticrossing behavior which is very well fit by a simple coupled-oscillator Hamiltonian, giving a giant Rabi-splitting energy of ~400 meV. The strength of this coupling is shown to be proportional to the square root of the molecular density. The Raman spectra of R6G on these films show an enhancement of many orders of magnitude due to surface enhanced scattering mechanisms; we find a maximum signal when a polariton mode lies in the middle of the Stokes shifted emission band.

We theoretically analyse the hybrid Mie-exciton optical modes arising from the strong coupling of excitons in organic dyes or transition-metal dichalcogenides with the Mie resonances of high-index dielectric nanoparticles. Detailed analytic calculati
ons show that silicon--exciton core--shell nanoparticles are characterised by a richness of optical modes which can be tuned through nanoparticle dimensions to produce large anticrossings in the visible or near infrared, comparable to those obtained in plexcitonics. The complex magnetic-excitonic nature of these modes is understood through spectral decomposition into Mie-coefficient contributions, complemented by electric and magnetic near-field profiles. In the frequency range of interest, absorptive losses in silicon are sufficiently low to allow observation of several periods of Rabi oscillations in strongly coupled emitter-particle architectures, as confirmed here by discontinuous Galerkin time-domain calculations for the electromagnetic field beat patterns. These results suggest that Mie resonances in high-index dielectrics are promising alternatives for plasmons in strong-coupling applications in nanophotonics, while the coupling of magnetic and electric modes opens intriguing possibilities for external control.
Understanding the physics of light emitter in quantum nanostructure regarding scalability, geometry, structure of the system and coupling between different degrees of freedom is important as one can improve the design and further provide controls of
quantum devices rigorously. The couplings between these degrees of freedom, in general, depends on the external field, the geometry of nano particles, and the experimental design. An effective model is proposed to describe the plasmon-exciton hybrid systems and its optical absorption spectrums are studied in details by exact diagonalization. Two different designs are discussed: nano particle planet surrounded by quantum dot satellites and quantum dot planet surrounded by nano particle satellites. In both setups, details of many quantum dots and nano particles are studied, and the spectrums are discussed in details regarding the energy of transition peaks and the weight distribution of allowed transition peaks. Also, different polarization of external fields are considered which results in anisotropic couplings, and the absorption spectrums clearly reveal the difference qualitatively. Finally, the system will undergo a phase transition in the presence of attractive interaction between excitons. Our work sheds the light on the design of nano scale quantum systems to achieve photon emitter/resonator theory in the plasmon-exciton hybrid systems.
Light-matter interaction at the atomic scale rules fundamental phenomena such as photoemission and lasing, while enabling basic everyday technologies, including photovoltaics and optical communications. In this context, plasmons --the collective elec
tron oscillations in conducting materials-- are important because they allow manipulating optical fields at the nanoscale. The advent of graphene and other two-dimensional crystals has pushed plasmons down to genuinely atomic dimensions, displaying appealing properties such as a large electrical tunability. However, plasmons in these materials are either too broad or lying at low frequencies, well below the technologically relevant near-infrared regime. Here we demonstrate sharp near-infrared plasmons in lithographically-patterned wafer-scale atomically-thin silver crystalline films. Our measured optical spectra reveal narrow plasmons (quality factor $sim4$), further supported by a low sheet resistance comparable to bulk metal in few-atomic-layer silver films down to seven Ag(111) monolayers. Good crystal quality and plasmon narrowness are obtained despite the addition of a thin passivating dielectric, which renders our samples resilient to ambient conditions. The observation of spectrally sharp and strongly confined plasmons in atomically thin silver holds great potential for electro-optical modulation and optical sensing applications.
Ultrafast pump-probe technique is a powerful tool to understand and manipulate properties of materials for designing novel quantum devices. An intense, single cycle terahertz pulse can change the intrinsic properties of semiconductor quantum dots to
have different luminescence. In a hybrid system of plasmon and exciton, the coherence and coupling between these two degrees of freedom play an important role on their optical properties. Therefore, we consider a terahertz pump optical probe experiment in the hybrid systems where the terahertz pump pulse couples to the exciton degrees of freedom on the quantum dot. The time resolved photoluminescence of the hybrid system shows that the response of the characteristic frequency shifts according to the overlap between the pump and probe pulses. Furthermore, the resonance between the exciton and plasmons can be induced by the terahertz pump pulse in some parameter regimes. Our results show the terahertz driven hybrid system can be a versatile tool for manipulating the material properties and open a new route to design modern optical devices.
A doped graphene layer in the integer quantum Hall regime reveals a highly unusual particle-hole excitation spectrum, which is calculated from the dynamical polarizability in the random phase approximation. We find that the elementary neutral excitat
ions in graphene in a magnetic field are unlike those of a standard two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG): in addition to the upper-hybrid mode, the particle-hole spectrum is reorganized in linear magneto-plasmons that disperse roughly parallel to $omega=v_F q$, instead of the usual horizontal (almost dispersionless) magneto-excitons. These modes could be detected in an inelastic light scattering experiment.
