Ordered arrays of metallic nanoparticles (NPs) are a promising platform for technological applications and fundamental investigations due to their ability to excite surface lattice resonances (SLRs). SLRs can support extremely high local electric fields that have been used to realize exotic physical phenomena. The open cavity architecture lends itself to...
Plasmonic metasurfaces are leading the development of next-generation optical devices with unprecedented compactness and functionality. In contrast to bulk refractive optics, these planar surfaces manipulate light with rationally designed subwavelength building blocks. This thesis focus on how emerging materials and design methods advance the eld of metasurfaces. Chapter 1 reviews...
