Thermal radiative properties of disordered media and deep metal gratings
Controlling thermal radiation through surface roughness, volumetric inhomogeneity and periodic micro/nanostructures has enormous applications in energy harvesting and saving, thermal management, photonics and optical sensing. The present dissertation investigates the spectral radiative properties …

Exploration of grating-based surface plasmon resonance systems for wave vector matching to enhance plasmon modes and preliminary surface plasmon-enhanced fluorescence interrogation
… oscillation of conductance band electrons in a metal. The most common experimental method to excite surface plasmon resonance is with light through a coupling mode (prism, grating, waveguide, etc). The work presented in this thesis uses experimental observations of surface plasmon resonance, …

Surface plasmons for enhanced metal-semiconductor-metal photodetectors
… a photon couples to the free electron gas of the metal at the interface between a metal and a dielectric. The extraordinary properties of SPP allow for sub-diffraction limit waveguiding and localized field enhancement. The emerging field of surface plasmonics has applied SPP coupling to a number …
