Plasmonic graphene is fabricated using thermally assisted self‐assembly of silver nanoparticles on graphene. The localized surface‐plasmonic effect is demonstrated with the resonance frequency shifting from 446 to 495 nm when the lateral dimension of the Ag nanoparticles increases from about 50 to 150 nm. Finite‐difference time‐domain simulations are employed to confirm the experimentally observed light‐scattering enhancement in the solar spectrum in plasmonic graphene and the decrease of both the plasmonic resonance frequency and amplitude with increasing graphene thickness. In addition, plasmonic graphene shows much‐improved electrical conductance by a factor of 2–4 as compared to the original graphene, making the plasmonic graphene a promising advanced transparent conductor with enhanced light scattering for thin‐film optoelectronic devices. 相似文献

Plasmonically coupled graphene structures have shown great promise for sensing applications. Their complex and cumbersome fabrication, however, has prohibited their widespread application and limited their use to rigid, planar surfaces. Here, a plasmonic sensor based on gold nanowire arrays on an elastomer with an added graphene monolayer is introduced. The stretchable plasmonic nanostructures not only significantly enhance the Raman signal from graphene, but can also be used by themselves as a sensor platform for 2D strain sensing. These nanowire arrays on an elastomer are fabricated by template‐stripping based nanotransfer printing, which enables a simple and fast production of stable nanogratings. The ultrasmooth surfaces of such transferred structures facilitate reliable large‐area transfers of graphene monolayers. The resulting coupled graphene‐nanograting construct exhibits ultrahigh sensitivity to applied strain, which can be detected by shifts in the plasmonic‐enhanced Raman spectrum. Furthermore, this sensor enables the detection of adsorbed molecules on nonplanar surfaces through graphene‐assisted surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). The simple fabrication of the plasmonic nanowire array platform and the graphene‐coupled devices have the potential to trigger widespread SERS applications and open up new opportunities for high‐sensitivity strain sensing applications. 相似文献

The collective oscillation of carriers--the plasmon--in graphene has many desirable properties, including tunability and low loss. However, in single-layer graphene, the dependence on carrier concentration of both the plasmonic resonance frequency and magnitude is relatively weak, limiting its applications in photonics. Here, we demonstrate transparent photonic devices based on graphene/insulator stacks, which are formed by depositing alternating wafer-scale graphene sheets and thin insulating layers, then patterning them together into photonic-crystal-like structures. We show experimentally that the plasmon in such stacks is unambiguously non-classical. Compared with doping in single-layer graphene, distributing carriers into multiple graphene layers effectively enhances the plasmonic resonance frequency and magnitude, which is different from the effect in a conventional semiconductor superlattice and is a direct consequence of the unique carrier density scaling law of the plasmonic resonance of Dirac fermions. Using patterned graphene/insulator stacks, we demonstrate widely tunable far-infrared notch filters with 8.2 dB rejection ratios and terahertz linear polarizers with 9.5 dB extinction ratios. An unpatterned stack consisting of five graphene layers shields 97.5% of electromagnetic radiation at frequencies below 1.2 THz. This work could lead to the development of transparent mid- and far-infrared photonic devices such as detectors, modulators and three-dimensional metamaterial systems. 相似文献

The mode hybridization between adjacent graphene nanoribbons determines the integration density of graphene‐based plasmonic devices. Here, plasmon hybridization in graphene nanostructures is demonstrated through the characterization of the coupling strength of plasmons in graphene nanoribbons as a function of charge density and inter‐ribbon spacing using Fourier transform infrared microscopy. In combination with numerical simulations, it is shown that the plasmon coupling is strongly mediated by the substrate phonons. For polar substrates, the plasmon coupling strength is limited by the plasmon–phonon interactions. In contrast, a nonpolar substrate affects neither the energy distribution of the original plasmon modes in graphene nanostructures nor their plasmon interactions, which increases exponentially as the inter‐ribbon spacing decreases. To further explore the potential of graphene broadband plasmonics on nonpolar substrates, a scheme is proposed that uses a metal–dielectric heterostructure to prevent the overlap of plasmons between neighboring graphene nanoribbons. The device structures retain the plasmon resonance frequency of the graphene ribbons and maximally isolate the plasmonic components from the surrounding electromagnetic environment, allowing modular design in integrated plasmonic circuits. 相似文献

A plasmonic device for high-efficiency optical switch is proposed based on graphene coupled photonic crystals structure. The finite-difference time-domain simulation results show that the transmission and reflection ratio can be controlled by tuning the parameters of the graphene strip, such as chemical potential or width. And the corresponding contrast ratio can be 25 and 26.8 for a single and double graphene strips coupled photonic crystals structure, respectively. The results in this paper will have potential application in nanosensors and integrated photonic circuits. 相似文献

The properties of plasmonic waves of graphene on a conducting substrate are discussed based on the classical electrodynamics and linearized hydrodynamic model. General expressions are given and illustrated graphically for the dispersion relation, power flow, energy density and energy transport velocity of the plasmonic waves. The numerical results show that acoustic plasmon mode of the system has a group velocity that can be made arbitrarily close to the graphene Fermi velocity by tuning the graphene–metal distance or graphene sheet carrier density. 相似文献

Graphene’s unique properties, such as strong plasmonic response and electrostatic doping, enable control over the properties of light in an active way. In this paper, we propose a graphene–metal hybrid metamaterial, which exhibits tunable wideband unidirectional light transmission. The hybrid metamaterial consists of a complementary split-ring graphene and a metallic grating. Unidirectional optical transmission with a wide bandwidth of 14.8% of the central frequency at 29.3?THz and a large tuning range of 6.6?THz is found to be achievable in simulations. The light reflection and graphene absorption are shown to be the major factors limiting the efficiency of unidirectional transmission. A large electron scattering time of graphene is beneficial for improving the transmission efficiency. The graphene–metal hybrid metamaterial enables active control over the propagation of light, which could be of interest for infrared isolation, polarization transformation, etc. 相似文献

Owing to its excellent electrical, mechanical, thermal and optical properties, graphene has attracted great interests since it was successfully exfoliated in 2004. Its two dimensional nature and superior properties meet the need of surface plasmons and greatly enrich the field of plasmonics. Recent progress and applications of graphene plasmonics will be reviewed, including the theoretical mechanisms, experimental observations, and meaningful applications. With relatively low loss, high confinement, flexible feature, and good tunability, graphene can be a promising plasmonic material alternative to the noble metals. Optics transformation, plasmonic metamaterials, light harvesting etc. are realized in graphene based devices, which are useful for applications in electronics, optics, energy storage, THz technology and so on. Moreover, the fine biocompatibility of graphene makes it a very well candidate for applications in biotechnology and medical science. 相似文献

Materials research plays a vital role in transforming breakthrough scientific ideas into next‐generation technology. Similar to the way silicon revolutionized the microelectronics industry, the proper materials can greatly impact the field of plasmonics and metamaterials. Currently, research in plasmonics and metamaterials lacks good material building blocks in order to realize useful devices. Such devices suffer from many drawbacks arising from the undesirable properties of their material building blocks, especially metals. There are many materials, other than conventional metallic components such as gold and silver, that exhibit metallic properties and provide advantages in device performance, design flexibility, fabrication, integration, and tunability. This review explores different material classes for plasmonic and metamaterial applications, such as conventional semiconductors, transparent conducting oxides, perovskite oxides, metal nitrides, silicides, germanides, and 2D materials such as graphene. This review provides a summary of the recent developments in the search for better plasmonic materials and an outlook of further research directions. 相似文献

Surface‐enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) has attracted increasing attention due to the potential of infrared spectroscopy in applications such as molecular trace sensing of solids, polymers, and proteins, specifically fueled by recent substantial developments in infrared plasmonic materials and engineered nanostructures. Here, the significant progress achieved in the past decades is reviewed, along with the current state of the art of SEIRA. In particular, the plasmonic properties of a variety of nanomaterials are discussed (e.g., metals, semiconductors, and graphene) along with their use in the design of efficient SEIRA configurations. To conclude, perspectives on potential applications, including single‐molecule detection and in vivo bioassays, are presented. 相似文献

Graphene is emerging as a promising material for plasmonics applications due to its strong light-matter interactions, most of which are theoretically predicted but not yet experimentally realized. Therefore, the integration of plasmonic nanoparticles to create metal nanoparticle/graphene composites enables numerous phenomena important for a range of applications from photonics to catalysis. For these applications it is important to articulate the coupling of photon-based excitations such as the interaction between plasmons in each of the material components, as well as their charge-based interactions dependent upon the energy alignment at the metal/graphene interface. These coupled phenomena underpin an active application area in graphene-based composites due to nanoparticle-dependent surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) of graphene phonon modes. This study reveals the coupling of a graphene/SiC support with Ga-nanoparticle-localized surface plasmon resonance, which is of particular interest due to its ability to be tuned across the UV into the near-IR region. This work is the first demonstration of the evolving plasmon resonance on graphene during the synthesis of surface-supported metal nanoparticles, thus providing evidence for the theoretically predicted screening revealed by a damped resonance with little energy shift. Therefore, the role of the graphene/substrate heterojunction in tailoring the plasmon resonance for nanoplasmonic applications is shown. Additionally, the coupled phenomena between the graphene-Ga plasmon properties, charge transfer, and SERS of graphene vibrational modes are explored. 相似文献

Ag nanoparticles (NPs) modified graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are proposed to function as the high-performance shared substrates for surface-enhanced Raman and infrared absorption spectroscopy (SERS and SEIRAS). This is realized by modulating the localized plasmonic resonances of Ag NPs in visible region and GNRs in mid-infrared region simultaneously, so as to selectively employ each resonance to acquire SERS and SEIRAS on a single substrate. As a proof of concept, shared substrates are prepared by fabricating GNRs on a Fabry–Pérot like cavity, followed by depositing a thin Ag film with annealing treatment to achieve Ag NPs. Complementary Raman and infrared active vibrational modes of rhodamine 6G molecules can be extracted from the SERS and SEIRAS spectra. By optimizing the dimension of Ag NPs, SERS enhancement factors at the order of 105 can be achieved, which are comparable with or even larger than that of the reported shared substrates. Meanwhile, various polyethylene oxide vibrational modes can be recognized with maximum SEIRAS amplification up to 170 times, which is one order larger than that of the reported graphene plasmonic infrared sensors. Such plasmonic nanosensor with excellent SERS and SEIRAS performance exhibits promising potential for biosensing applications on an integrated lab-on-a-chip strategy. 相似文献

Graphene is an intriguing two-dimensional material, which could be modified for achieving tunable properties with many applications. Photoluminescence of graphene due to plasmonic emission is well-known, however, attempts to develop strong luminescent graphene have been difficult. Synthesis of a graphene-based material with a dual optical functionality, namely quenching the fluorescence of organic dyes while maintaining its own self-luminescence, is an interesting and challenging proposition. Here, we demonstrate this optical bifunctionality in a lattice-modified luminescent graphene, where europium(III) cations are complexed with graphene through oxygen functionalities. After excitation at 314 nm, a hypersensitive red emission is observed at 614 and 618 nm showing the complexation of europium(III) with graphene. We demonstrate dual functionality of this graphene by the quenching of luminescence of Rhodamine-B while displaying its own hypersensitive red emission. The decay lifetime observed through the time-resolved spectroscopy confirms its potential for applications in biosensing as well as optoelectronics. 相似文献

We present infrared spectroscopy study of plasmon excitations in graphene in high magnetic fields. The plasmon resonance in patterned graphene disks splits into edge and bulk plasmon modes in magnetic fields. Remarkably, the edge plasmons develop increasingly longer lifetimes in high fields due to the suppression of backscattering. Moreover, due to the linear band structure of graphene, the splitting of the edge and bulk plasmon modes develops a strong doping dependence, which differs from the behavior of conventional semiconductor two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) systems. We also observe the appearance of a higher order mode indicating an anharmonic confinement potential even in these well-defined circular disks. Our work not only opens an avenue for the investigation of the properties of Dirac magnetoplasmons but also supports the great potential of graphene for tunable terahertz magneto-optical devices. 相似文献

Plasmons describe collective oscillations of electrons. They have a fundamental role in the dynamic responses of electron systems and form the basis of research into optical metamaterials. Plasmons of two-dimensional massless electrons, as present in graphene, show unusual behaviour that enables new tunable plasmonic metamaterials and, potentially, optoelectronic applications in the terahertz frequency range. Here we explore plasmon excitations in engineered graphene micro-ribbon arrays. We demonstrate that graphene plasmon resonances can be tuned over a broad terahertz frequency range by changing micro-ribbon width and in situ electrostatic doping. The ribbon width and carrier doping dependences of graphene plasmon frequency demonstrate power-law behaviour characteristic of two-dimensional massless Dirac electrons. The plasmon resonances have remarkably large oscillator strengths, resulting in prominent room-temperature optical absorption peaks. In comparison, plasmon absorption in a conventional two-dimensional electron gas was observed only at 4.2?K (refs 13, 14). The results represent a first look at light-plasmon coupling in graphene and point to potential graphene-based terahertz metamaterials. 相似文献

Plasmonics allows light to be localized on length scales much shorter than its wavelength, which makes it possible to integrate photonics and electronics on the nanoscale. Magneto-optical materials are appealing for applications in plasmonics because they open up the possibility of using external magnetic fields in plasmonic devices. Here, we fabricate a new magneto-optical material, a magnetoplasmonic crystal, that consists of a nanostructured noble-metal film on top of a ferromagnetic dielectric, and we demonstrate an enhanced Kerr effect with this material. Such magnetoplasmonic crystals could have applications in telecommunications, magnetic field sensing and all-optical magnetic data storage. 相似文献

Combining plasmonic and magnetic properties, namely magneto-plasmonic coupling, inspires great research interest and the search for magneto-plasmonic nanostructure becomes considerably critical. Here we designed a nanopillar-in-matrix structure with core–shell alloyed nanopillars for both BaTiO3 (BTO)-Au0.5Co0.5 (AuCo) and BTO-Au0.25Cu0.25Co0.25Ni0.25 (AuCuCoNi) hybrid systems, i.e., ferromagnetic alloy cores (e.g., Co or CoNi) with plasmonic shells (e.g., Au or Au/Cu). These core–shell alloy nanopillars are uniformly embedded into a dielectric BTO matrix to form a vertically aligned nanocomposite (VAN) structure. Both hybrid systems present excellent epitaxial quality and interesting multi-functionality, e.g., high magnetic anisotropy, magneto-optical coupling response, tailorable plasmonic resonance wavelength, tunable hyperbolic properties and strong optical anisotropy. These alloyed nanopillars-in-matrix designs provide enormous potential for complex hybrid material designs with multi-functionality and demonstrate strong interface enabled magneto-plasmonic coupling along with plasmonic and magnetic performance. 相似文献

We report on infrared (IR) nanoscopy of 2D plasmon excitations of Dirac fermions in graphene. This is achieved by confining mid-IR radiation at the apex of a nanoscale tip: an approach yielding 2 orders of magnitude increase in the value of in-plane component of incident wavevector q compared to free space propagation. At these high wavevectors, the Dirac plasmon is found to dramatically enhance the near-field interaction with mid-IR surface phonons of SiO(2) substrate. Our data augmented by detailed modeling establish graphene as a new medium supporting plasmonic effects that can be controlled by gate voltage. 相似文献

Graphene plasmons are known to offer an unprecedented level of confinement and enhancement of electromagnetic field. They are hence amenable to interacting strongly with various other excitations (for example, phonons) in their surroundings and are an ideal platform to study the properties of hybrid optical modes. Conversely, the thermally induced motion of particles and quasiparticles can in turn interact with electronic degrees of freedom in graphene, including the collective plasmon modes via the Coulomb interaction, which opens up new pathways to manipulate and control the behavior of these modes. This study demonstrates tunable electrothermal control of coupling between graphene mid‐infrared (mid‐IR) plasmons and IR active optical phonons in silicon nitride. This study utilizes graphene nanoribbons functioning as both localized plasmonic resonators and local Joule heaters upon application of an external bias. In the latter role, they achieve up to ≈100 K of temperature variation within the device area. This study observes increased modal splitting of two plasmon–phonon polariton hybrid modes with temperature, which is a manifestation of increased plasmon–phonon coupling strength. Additionally, this study also reports on the existence of a thermally excited hybrid plasmon–phonon mode. This work can open the door for future optoelectronic devices such as electrically switchable graphene mid‐infrared plasmon sources. 相似文献

We numerically and theoretically demonstrate a plasmon-induced transparency (PIT) at the mid-infrared region with finite-difference time-domain method. The system consists of an optically bright dipole mode and a dark quadrupole mode, which are supported by the graphene nanoring and graphene nanostrips, respectively. The coupling between the two modes introduces transparency window and large group delays. The pronounced PIT resonance can be easily modified by adjusting the geometric parameters and the Fermi level of graphene nanostructure. Our results suggest that the demonstrated PIT effect may be applicated in the slow-light device, active plasmonic switching, and optical sensing. 相似文献
