Abstract
We find that the spontaneous and collective emissions have a strong influence on the excitation of two-level absorbers (atoms, molecules) interacting in resonance with the plasmonic mode near the metal nanoparticle. The spontaneous and collective emissions limit the absorption enhancement by the plasmonic mode and make the enhancement possible only with a fast, picosecond population relaxation of the upper absorbing states. Conditions for the maximum of plasmon-enhanced absorption in the presence of spontaneous and collective emissions are found. The nonlinearity in the nanoparticle-absorber interaction and in collective emission causes the bistability in the plasmon-enhanced absorption at high external field intensities and the plasmonic mode excitation.
期刊介绍：
This journal establishes a dedicated channel for physicists, material scientists, chemists, engineers and computer scientists who are interested in photonics and nanostructures, and especially in research related to photonic crystals, photonic band gaps and metamaterials. The Journal sheds light on the latest developments in this growing field of science that will see the emergence of faster telecommunications and ultimately computers that use light instead of electrons to connect components.
