Abstract

The design and chemical synthesis of plasmonic nanoresonators exhibiting a strong magnetic response in the visible is a key requirement to the realization of efficient functional and self-assembled metamaterials. However, novel applications like Huygens' metasurfaces or mu-near-zero materials require stronger magnetic responses than those currently reported. Our numerical simulations demonstrate that the specific dodecahedral morphology, whereby 12 silver satellites are located on the faces of a nanosized dielectric dodecahedron, provides sufficiently large electric and magnetic dipolar and quadrupolar responses that interfere to produce so-called generalized Huygens' sources, fulfilling the generalized Kerker condition. Using a multistep colloidal engineering approach, we synthesize highly symmetric plasmonic nanoclusters with a controlled silver satellite size and show that they exhibit a strong forward scattering that may be used in various applications such as metasurfaces or perfect absorbers.

摘要

设计并化学合成在可见光范围内呈现强磁响应的等离激元纳米谐振器,是实现高效功能化和自组装超材料的关键要求。然而,诸如惠更斯超表面或磁导率近零材料等新型应用,需要比目前报道的更强的磁响应。我们的数值模拟表明,特定的十二面体形态(即12个银卫星位于纳米级介电十二面体的面上)提供了足够大的电偶极、磁偶极和四极响应,这些响应相互干涉产生所谓的广义惠更斯源,满足广义克尔条件。通过多步胶体工程方法,我们合成了具有可控银卫星尺寸的高度对称等离激元纳米团簇,并表明它们表现出强烈的前向散射,可用于超表面或完美吸收体等各种应用。
