Nanophotonics in two-dimensional materials (Invited Paper)
20 August 2024 • 3:50 PM - 4:15 PM PDT | Conv. Ctr. Room 6C
Abstract
Atomically thin materials enable the manipulation of light at the nanoscale, leveraging a diversity of polaritonic modes, from plasmons in thin metals and doped graphene to excitons in transition metal dichalcogenides and phonons in ionic insulators. We will discuss recent results on the fabrication and characterization of ultrathin noble metal plasmonic nanostructures, ultrafast carrier dynamics in those films, and advances toward complete coupling from plasmons in those structures to propagating light.
