We introduce a low refractive index layer between the metal and the gain medium in metal-coated laser resonators and demonstrate that it can significantly reduce the dissipation losses. Analysis of a gain medium waveguide shows that for a given waveg... Read More about Low threshold gain metal coated laser nanoresonators.

Metal coated subwavelength laser resonators with low threshold gain (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

We demonstrate that a low refractive index layer in metal coated laser resonators can significantly reduce the threshold gain. A subwavelength resonator with a sufficiently low threshold gain to lase at room temperature is presented.

Fabrication approaches for metallo-dielectric plasmonic waveguides (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Different techniques for fabricating long-range plasmonic metallo-dielectric waveguides are discussed. The approaches depend strongly on the material system in use. Specific results are presented for SU8 and PDMS.
