In particular, metallic nanostructures capable of supporting surface plasmons can be designed to possess spectrally narrow plasmon resonances, which are of particular interest due to their exceptional sensitivity to their local environment. In turn, combining plasmonic nanostructures with other materials in hybrid systems allows this sensitivity to be exploited in a broad range of applications. In this book the author explores two different approaches to attaining narrow plasmon resonances: in gold nanoparticle arrays by utilising diffraction coupling, and in copper thin films covered by a protective graphene layer. The performance of these resonances is then considered in a number of applications. Nanoparticle arrays are used along with an atomic heterostructure as elements in a nanomechanical electro-optical modulator that is capable of strong, broadband modulation. Strong coupling between diffraction-coupled plasmon resonances and a gold nanoparticle array and guided modes in a dielectric slab is used to construct a hybrid waveguide. Lastly, the extreme phase sensitivity of graphene-protected copper is used to detect trace quantities of small toxins in solution far below the detection limit of commercial surface plasmon resonance sensors. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aSurfaces (Physics) 606 $aInterfaces (Physical sciences) 606 $aThin films 606 $aOptical materials 606 $aElectronic materials 606 $aNanotechnology 606 $aElectronic circuits 606 $aSurface and Interface Science, Thin Films$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P25160 606 $aOptical and Electronic Materials$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z12000 606 $aNanotechnology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Z14000 606 $aElectronic Circuits and Devices$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31010 615 0$aSurfaces (Physics). 615 0$aInterfaces (Physical sciences). 615 0$aThin films. 615 0$aOptical materials. 615 0$aElectronic materials. 615 0$aNanotechnology. 615 0$aElectronic circuits. 615 14$aSurface and Interface Science, Thin Films. 615 24$aOptical and Electronic Materials. 615 24$aNanotechnology. 615 24$aElectronic Circuits and Devices. 676 $a530.417 700 $aThomas$b Philip A$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0929901 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300560503321 996 $aNarrow Plasmon Resonances in Hybrid Systems$92503198 997 $aUNINA
