Bistability of optical response of plasmonic nanowire device at microwatt power levels

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.
