Super-radiating manipulation of a nano-emitter by active toroidal metamaterials

The far-field radiation of a single dipolar emitter can be controlled by coupling to toroidal dipole resonance attached to metallic double flat rings, realizing a conversion from non- to super-radiating. The underlying physical mechanism is the hybridization interference of toroidal and electric dip...

Sumario:The far-field radiation of a single dipolar emitter can be controlled by coupling to toroidal dipole resonance attached to metallic double flat rings, realizing a conversion from non- to super-radiating. The underlying physical mechanism is the hybridization interference of toroidal and electric dipoles under an asymmetric configuration by introducing a radial displacement of the dipolar emitter. By embedding gain medium in the gap spacer between double flat rings, the directional far-field super-radiating power can achieve a tremendous enhancement with a moderate requirement on the gain coefficient, promoting light-matter interaction manipulation.
