[EN] In this work, we demonstrate experimentally the use of an array of gold nanodisks on functionalized silicon for chemosensing purposes. The metallic nanostructures are designed to display a very strong plasmonic resonance ...
We present a way of exciting surface plasmon polaritons along non-patterned metallic surfaces by means of a flat squeezing slab designed with transformation optics. The slab changes the dispersion relation of incident ...

Esta tesis trata sobre el fascinante fenómeno de la transmisión extraordinaria a través de láminas metálicas nonoestructuradas periódicamente con aperturas al corte. Un efecto relacionado con la excitación de un tipo de ...
[EN] We propose a very compact metasurface that works as a quarter-wave plate at two
different frequencies, 1 THz and 2.2 THz. The fractional bandwidth of the first band is remarkably
32.2%, beyond the state-of-the-art
The fundamental electric dipolar resonance of metallic nanostrips placed on top of a dielectric
waveguide can be excited via evanescent wave coupling, thus giving rise to broad dips in the
transmission spectrum of the ...

Ligh-matter interaction at optical frequencies is mostly mediated by the electric component of the
electromagnetic field, with the magnetic component usually being considered negligible. Recently, it has been shown that ...

[EN] Expanding ideas from microwaves, we demonstrate experimentally a terahertz inductor by using meander-lines in a canonical extraordinary transmission (ET) hole array leading to a strong resonance¿s redshift and an ...
We present a mid-infrared inductor that when applied to an extraordinary transmission hole array produces a strong redshift of the resonant peak accompanied by an unprecedented enlargement of the operation bandwidth. The ...
