Modulating Resonance Modes and Q Value of a CdS Nanowire Cavity by Single Ag Nanoparticles

Abstract: Semiconductor nanowire (NW) cavities with tailorable optical modes have been used to develop nanoscale oscillators and amplifiers in microlasers, sensors, and single photon emitters. The resonance modes of NW could be tuned by different boundary conditions. However, continuously and reversibly adjusting resonance modes and improving Q-factor of the cavity remain a great challenge. We report a method to modulate resonance modes continuously and reversibly and improve Q-factor based on surface plasmon-exciton in… Show more

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] CdS is an excellent II-VI semiconductor material with a direct band gap of 2.42 eV at room temperature, which is a good candidate for optoelectronic applications in the visible spectrum range. The stimulated emission and lasing have been observed in CdS nanowires [9][10][11][12] and nanoribbons, 13,14 indicating that onedimensional CdS structures can be used as promising micro/ nanolasers for integrated photonics. Generally, the lasing mechanisms in the semiconductor microwire are attributed to the whispering-gallery mode (WGM) and Fabry-P erot (F-P) cavity.…”

“…Besides this material driven research certain treatments of the NW cavity were realized in order to achieve an efficient adjustment of the longitudinal resonator modes . Furthermore, a modification of the field distribution within the NW was achieved by placing the NW cavity in the vicinity of metallic surfaces or particles . Although the fundamental properties such as emission wavelength, polarization, and resonator modifications have been studied thoroughly within the past decades, further underlying technological relevant features remained relatively unstudied until recently.…”

“…Combining metal nanostructures with 1D semiconductor nanowires provides a possible avenue for the realization of remote operation with excellent performance. The resonance cavity characteristics of CdS NW were investigated by manually putting a single Ag nanoparticle at different positions nearby an Ag NW based on the plasmon–exciton interaction . However, the operation to make metal NP approach to semiconductor NW by micromanipulator was too complex to achieve, and it was also hard to get the integrated metal–semiconductor hybrid structure.…”
