Femtosecond imaging of spatial deformation of surface plasmon polariton wave packet during resonant interaction with nanocavity

Abstract: The spatiotemporal dynamics of a surface plasmon polariton (SPP) wave packet (WP) that interacts with a plasmonic nanocavity on a metal surface are investigated via femtosecond time-resolved two-photon fluorescence microscopy and numerical calculations. The nanocavity, which consists of a metal–insulator–metal (MIM) laminar structure (longitudinal length: ∼100 nm), behaves as a subwavelength meta-atom possessing discretized eigenenergies. When a chirp-induced femto-second SPP WP is incident on the nanocavity, only the spectral component matching a particular eigenenergy is transmitted to continue propagation on the metal surface. This spectral clipping induces a spatial peak shift in the WP. The shift can be controlled by tuning the eigenenergy or chirp.
