Control of Magnetic Dipole Emission with Surface Plasmon Polaritons
Abstract
The possibility to use surface plasmon polaritons for enhancement of weak magnetic dipole transitions is analyzed theoretically and demonstrated experimentally for simple flat geometry and sine-wave profile modulated plasmonic films. Spontaneous emission of Eu3+ in organic matrices deposited onto plasmonic surfaces demonstrates specific angular and polarization patterns at both electric and magnetic dipole transitions with a well-defined maximum at the plasmon decoupling conditions manifesting the character and magnitude of the effect.
