Plasmonics has emerged as an important research field in nanoscience and
nanotechnology. Recently, significant attention has been devoted to the observation and the …

We present a theoretical investigation of terahertz (THz) generation in laser-induced gas
plasmas. The work is strongly motivated by recent experimental results on microplasmas …

In this paper, a wideband InP-based hybrid plasmonic nano-antenna (HPNA) operating at
telecommunication wavelengths has been proposed. Monolithically integrating InP-based …

We disclose an unanticipated link between plasmonics and nonlinear frequency down-
conversion in laser-induced gas-plasmas. For two-color femtosecond pump pulses, a …

In this work, we investigate the generation of second-harmonic light by gold nanorods and
demonstrate that the collected nonlinear intensity depends upon a phase interplay between …

Nonlinear optics at the nanoscale is severely limited by the small departure of available
materials from linear behavior. Despite intense efforts placed into overcoming this problem …

Coupling light from in-plane guided light into free space or optical fibers is crucial for many
photonic integrated circuits and vice versa. However, traditional grating couplers or …

We numerically investigate the second harmonic generation from different plasmonic
systems and evidence the key role played in their nonlinear response by the phase at the …

The optimization of nonlinear optical processes in plasmonic structures is important for the
design of efficient nonlinear nanosources of light. Considering the simple case of spherical …

We present a fully analytic theory for nanorod resonances including the phase of reflection
from the rounded ends using a transmission line approach. It combines the circuit theory …
