Bistability of optical response of plasmonic nanowire device at microwatt power levels
Bistability of optical response of plasmonic nanowire device at microwatt power levels
A profound optical bistability in light scattering is observed in a pair of oscillating nanowires decorated with plasmonic patterns. The response becomes bistable at only a few μW of incident optical power, which is facilitated by coupling between the plasmonic and the highly nonlinear mechanical subsystems of the nanostructure.

Abstract
A profound optical bistability in light scattering is observed in a pair of oscillating nanowires decorated with plasmonic patterns. The response becomes bistable at only a few μW of incident optical power, which is facilitated by coupling between the plasmonic and the highly nonlinear mechanical subsystems of the nanostructure.
