Tunability of the surface plasmon resonance wavelength is demonstrated by varying the thickness of Al2O3 spacer layer inserted between the graphene and nanoparticles. By varying the spacer layer thickness from 0.3 to 1.8 nm, the resonance wavelength is shifted from 583 to 566 nm. The shift is due to a change in the electromagnetic field coupling strength between the localized surface plasmons excited in the gold nanoparticles and a single layer graphene film. In contrast, when the graphene film is absent from the system, no noticeable shift in the resonance wavelength is observed upon varying the spacer thickness.

We demonstrate tuning of two-dimensional (2D) plasmon spectrum in modulation-doped AlAs quantum wells via the application of in-plane uniaxial strain. We show that dramatic change in the plasma spectrum is caused by strain-induced redistribution of c harge carriers between anisotropic $X_x$ and $X_y$ valleys. Discovered piezoplasmonic effect provides a tool to study the band structure of 2D systems. We use piezoplasmonic effect to measure how the inter-valley energy splitting depends on the deformation. This dependency yields the AlAs deformation potential of $E_2 = (5.6 pm 0.3)$~eV.

We report on strong coupling of the charge carrier plasmon $omega_{PL}$ in graphene with the surface optical phonon $omega_{SO}$ of the underlying SiC(0001) substrate with low electron concentration ($n=1.2times 10^{15}$ $cm^{-3}$) in the long wavele ngth limit ($q_parallel rightarrow 0$). Energy dependent energy-loss spectra give for the first time clear evidence of two coupled phonon-plasmon modes $omega_pm$ separated by a gap between $omega_{SO}$ ($q_parallel rightarrow 0$) and $omega_{TO}$ ($q_parallel >> 0$), the transverse optical phonon mode, with a Fano-type shape, in particular for higher primary electron energies ($E_0 ge 20eV$). A simplified model based on dielectric theory is able to simulate our energy - loss spectra as well as the dispersion of the two coupled phonon-plasmon modes $omega_pm$. In contrast, Liu and Willis [1] postulate in their recent publication no gap and a discontinuous dispersion curve with a one-peak structure from their energy-loss data.
We present a simplified yet sophisticated variation to localised surface plasmon resonance spectroscopy, which makes use of naked or non-functionalised, nanoparticle templates. These nanoparticle templates, produced with a rapid and scalable process, namely laser annealing, were used as a highly sensitive surface sensor to monitor the adsorption of both metallic lead and a lead salt from aqueous solutions, showing a measurable optical response due to a surface abundance of lead as low as 100 ppm from 0.3 ml of Pb2SO4 solutions, with concentrations less than 20 ppm. This proposed method enables the end user to rapidly assess the surface abundance of lead from a simple optical reflectance measurement and could serve as a platform for in situ analysis within water filtration and cleaning systems.
We use the tight-binding model and the random-phase approximation to investigate the intrinsic plasmon in silicene. At finite temperatures, an undamped plasmon is generated from the interplay between the intraband and the interband-gap transitions. T he extent of the plasmon existence range in terms of momentum and temperature, which is dependent on the size of single-particle-excitation gap, is further tuned by applying a perpendicular electric field. The plasmon becomes damped in the interband-excitation region. A low damped zone is created by the field-induced spin split. The field-dependent plasmon spectrum shows a strong tunability in plasmon intensity and spectral bandwidth. This could make silicene a very suitable candidate for plasmonic applications.
In this letter, we study how coupling between AuNPs and ZnO thin films affects their emission properties. The emission intensity of ZnO thin films changes when Al2O3 spacer layer of different thickness are included in ZnO/Au films, consistent with th eoretical predictions. The emission properties are also controlled using the polarization of the excitation source. Emission properties depended on the polarization of the excitation source because of the surface plasmon resonance of AuNPs. The photoluminescence anisotropy of these systems shows that enhanced photoluminescence can be achieved through coupling of the emission from ZnO with the surface plasmon resonance of AuNPs.
