Graphene plasmonics: A platform for strong light-matter interaction
TLDR
Graphene plasmons provide a suitable alternative to noble-metal plasmonics because they exhibit much larger confinement and relatively long propagation distances, with the advantage of being highly tunable via electrostatic gating as mentioned in this paper.Abstract:
Graphene plasmons provide a suitable alternative to noble-metal plasmons because they exhibit much larger confinement and relatively long propagation distances, with the advantage of being highly tunable via electrostatic gating. We report strong light- matter interaction assisted by graphene plasmons, and in particular, we predict unprecedented high decay rates of quantum emitters in the proximity of a carbon sheet, large vacuum Rabi splitting and Purcell factors, and extinction cross sections exceeding the geometrical area in graphene ribbons and nanometer-sized disks. Our results provide the basis for the emerging and potentially far-reaching field of graphene plasmonics, offering an ideal platform for cavity quantum electrodynamics and supporting the possibility of single-molecule, single-plasmon devices.read more
