Acoustically modulated plasmonic optical resonators

We provide plasmonic structures having optical responses that are sensitive to mechanical input(s). Such plasmon resonances can be made sufficiently sensitive to deformation to enable this approach. These structures can be used in active devices, such as an optical metasurface controlled by one or m...

More Information
Summary:We provide plasmonic structures having optical responses that are sensitive to mechanical input(s). Such plasmon resonances can be made sufficiently sensitive to deformation to enable this approach. These structures can be used in active devices, such as an optical metasurface controlled by one or more acoustic inputs, or in passive devices such as an acoustic sensor or mechanical force sensor.
