Abstract:
Metal and dielectric have long been thought as two different states of matter possessing highly contrasting electric and optical properties. A metal is a material highly reflective to electromagnetic waves for frequencies up to the optical region. In contrast, a dielectric is transparent to electromagnetic waves. These two different classical electrodynamic properties are distinguished by different signs of the real part of permittivity: The metal has a negative sign while the dielectric has a positive one. Here, we propose a different topological understanding of metal and dielectric. By considering metal and dielectric as just two limiting cases of a periodic metal–dielectric layered metamaterial, from which a metal can continuously transform into a dielectric by varying the metal filling ratio from 1 to 0, we further demonstrate the abrupt change of a topological invariant at a certain point during this transition, classifying the metamaterials into metallic state and dielectric state. The topological phase transition from the metallic state to the dielectric state occurs when the filling ratio is one-half. These two states generalize our previous understanding of metal and dielectric: The metamaterial with metal filling ratio larger/smaller than one-half is named as the “generalized metal/dielectric.” Interestingly, the surface plasmon polariton (SPP) at a metal/dielectric interface can be understood as the limiting case of a topological edge state.

Abstract:
The progress of the silicon-based complementary-metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) technology is mainly contributed to the scaling of the individual component. After decades of development, the scaling trend is approaching to its limitation, and there is urgent needs for the innovations of the materials and structures of the MOS devices, in order to postpone the end of the scaling. Atomic layer deposition (ALD) provides precise control of the deposited thin film at the atomic scale, and has wide application not only in the MOS technology, but also in other nanostructures. In this dissertation, I study rapid thermal processing (RTP) treatment of thermally grown SiO2, ALD growth of SiO2, and ALD growth of high-k HfO2 dielectric materials for gate oxides of MOS devices. Using a lateral heating treatment of SiO2, the gate leakage current of SiO2 based MOS capacitors was reduced by 4 order of magnitude, and the underlying mechanism was studied. Ultrathin SiO2 films were grown by ALD, and the electrical properties of the films and the SiO2/Si interface were extensively studied. High quality HfO2 films were grown using ALD on a chemical oxide. The dependence of interfacial quality on the thickness of the chemical oxide was studied. Finally I studied growth of HfO2 on two innovative interfacial layers, an interfacial layer grown by in-situ ALD ozone/water cycle exposure and an interfacial layer of etched thermal and RTP SiO2. The effectiveness of growth of high-quality HfO2 using the two interfacial layers are comparable to that of the chemical oxide. The interfacial properties are studied in details using XPS and ellipsometry.

The motion of electrons in atoms, molecules, and solids in the presence of intense electromagnetic radiation is an important research topic in physics and physical chemistry because of its fundamental nature and numerous practical applications, ranging from precise machining of materials to optical control of chemical reactions and light-driven electronic devices. Mechanisms of light-matter interactions critically depend on the dimensions of the irradiated system and evolve significantly from single atoms or molecules to the macroscopic bulk. Nanoparticles provide the link between these two extremes. In this thesis, I take advantage of this bridge to study light-matter interactions as a function of nanoparticle size, shape, and composition. I present here three discrete, but interconnected, experiments contributing to our knowledge of nanoparticle properties and their response to intense, short-pulsed light fields. First, I investigate how individual nanoparticles interact with each other in solution, studying their temperature-dependent solubility. The interaction potential between 5.5nm gold nanoparticles, ligated by an alkanethiol was found to be -0.165eV, in reasonable agreement with a phenomenological model. The other two experiments explore ultrafast dynamics driven by intense femtosecond lasers in isolated, gas-phase metallic and dielectric nanoparticles. Photoelectron momentum imaging is applied to study the response of gold, silica, and gold-shell/silica-core nanoparticles (ranging from single to several hundred nanometers in size) with near-infrared (NIR), 25 fs laser pulses in the intensity range of 10¹¹ - 10¹⁴ W/cm². These measurements, which constitute the bulk of my graduate work, reveal the complex interplay between the external optical field and the induced near-field of the nanoparticle, resulting in the emission of very energetic electrons that are much faster than those emitted from isolated atoms or molecules exposed to the same light pulses. The highest photoelectron energies (“cutoffs”) were measured as a function of laser intensity, nanoparticle material and size. We found that the energy cutoffs increase monotonically with laser intensity and nanoparticle size, except for the gold/silica hybrid where the plasmon resonance response modifies this behavior at low intensities. The measured photoelectron spectra for metallic nanoparticles display a large energy enhancement over silica. Finally, the last part of this thesis explores the possibility to apply time-resolved x-ray scattering as a probe of the ultrafast dynamics in isolated nanoparticles driven by very intense (~10¹⁵ W/cm²) NIR laser radiation. To do this, I developed and built a nanoparticle source capable of injecting single, gas-phase nanoparticles with a narrow size distribution into the laser focus. We used femtosecond x-ray pulses from an x-ray free electron laser (XFEL) to map the evolution of the laser-irradiated nanoparticle. The ultrafast dynamics were observed in the single-shot x-ray diffraction patterns measured as a function of delay between the NIR and x-ray pulses, which allows for femtosecond temporal and nanometer spatial resolution. We found that the intense IR laser pulse rapidly ionizes the nanoparticle, effectively turning it into a nanoplasma within less than a picosecond, and observed signatures of the nanoparticle surface softening on a few hundred-femtosecond time scale.

Abstract:
In this PhD thesis, we study properties of stationary transverse magnetic polarized waves in structures built of a Kerr-type nonlinear dielectric layer, metal and linear dielectric layers. Although these waves, called here plasmon-solitons, have been studied for more than 30 years, there is still no experimental confirmation of their existence. The main reason being that, in all the configurations predicted so far, the nonlinear index modification required to observe plasmon-solitons corresponds to light intensities orders of magnitude higher than the damage threshold of typical nonlinear materials. The goal of this thesis is to improve the understanding of plasmon-solitons, so as to design structures that support these nonlinear waves at low power levels. Firstly, we study configurations with a semi-infinite nonlinear medium. We develop two semi-analytical models based on Maxwell's equations. The first model treats the Kerr-type nonlinearity in a simplified way, but allows us to obtain analytical expressions for both the field profiles and the nonlinear dispersion relation. The second model treats the nonlinearity in an exact way. It allows us to obtain an analytical expression for the nonlinear dispersion relation, but the field profiles in the nonlinear medium are found numerically. We study for the first time three-layer structures (nonlinear dielectric/metal/linear dielectric) for which the linear permittivities of the dielectric cladding are different on both sides of the metal. In these configurations, we find narrow regions of structure opto-geometric parameters in which low-power plasmon-solitons exist. Because our models are formulated for four-layer structures, they allow us to study for the first time configurations with an additional dielectric layer introduced between the nonlinear dielectric and the metal film. We provide dispersion diagrams and field plots for such structures with various parameters. The semi-analytical formulation of our models allows us to rapidly scan the phase space of the structure parameters. Using these scans, we report possible four-layer configurations with realistic parameters that support plasmon-solitons at power levels below the material damage threshold. Secondly, we study configurations called nonlinear slot waveguides, in which a finite-size nonlinear dielectric core is sandwiched between two semi-infinite metal cladding layers. We develop two models based on Maxwell's equations. The first model uses a simplified treatment of the Kerr nonlinearity, but provides analytical expressions for the field profiles and the nonlinear dispersion relations expressed in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions. The second model treats the Kerr nonlinearity in the exact way and allows us to obtain an analytical condition that reduces the parameter space in which the solutions for a given structure are numerically computed. We study the dispersion plots and the mode transformations along the dispersion curves for the symmetric nonlinear slot waveguides. Except for the first-order modes already known in such structures, we report the existence of higher-order modes. All the modes of the nonlinear slot waveguide can be divided in two families: a family of symmetric and antisymmetric modes with nodes that resemble the linear modes of a modified linear slot waveguide; and a family of symmetric and asymmetric node-less modes that do not have linear counterparts. We report that in the node-less family, the symmetric modes appear through a fold bifurcation and the asymmetric modes, appear from the symmetric modes through a Hopf bifurcation. We also study the effects of the core size and of the permittivity contrast between the core and the cladding on the dispersion diagrams. We show that a careful choice of these parameters may lead to nonlinear effects that can be observed at low powers. Finally, we study asymmetric nonlinear slot waveguides (with different permittivities of the two metal claddings).
El objetivo de esta tesis es la mejora en el conocimiento de los SP, así como el diseño de estructuras capaces de soportar estas ondas no lineales a bajos niveles de intensidad.En primer lugar, se ha estudiado la configuración correspondiente a un medio no lineal semiinfinito. Para ello se han desarrollado dos modelos semianalíticos basados en las ecuaciones de Maxwell. El primero trata la no linealidad de tipo Kerr de una manera sencilla, pero permite obtener expresiones analíticas para tanto los perfiles de campo como para las relaciones de dispersión no lineales. El segundo considera la no linealidad de un modo exacto. Esto permite obtener una expresión analítica de la mencionada relación de dispersión no lineal; sin embargo, los perfiles de campo han de ser obtenidos numéricamente. Se estudian también por primera vez estructuras de tres láminas (dieléctrico no lineal/metal/ dieléctrico lineal) en las que las constantes dieléctricas lineales del recubrimiento son distintas en ambos lados del metal. En estas estructuras se optimizan los parámetros y se obtienen pequeñas zonas con presencia de SP de baja energía. Puesto que los modelos están desarrollados para estructuras de cuatro láminas, se pueden estudiar por primera vez configuraciones con una lámina dieléctrica adicional situada entre el dieléctrico no lineal y el metal. Se proporcionan a su vez diagramas de dispersión y perfiles de campo para las anteriores estructuras en función de varios parámetros. La formulación semianalítica de los modelos permite hacer un rápido barrido del espacio fásico de los parámetros de la estructura. De este modo, se muestran configuraciones de cuatro láminas con unos parámetros realistas para la creación de los citados SP de baja energía.En segundo lugar, se han estudiado las guías de onda metálicas no lineales (GOMNL), en las que un núcleo dieléctrico no lineal de tamaño finito es intercalado entre dos láminas metálicas. Para ello se han desarrollado de nuevo dos modelos basados en las ecuaciones de Maxwell. El primero trata la no linealidad de tipo Kerr de un modo sencillo, pero proporciona expresiones analíticas para los perfiles de campo y las relaciones de dispersión no lineales mediante funciones elípticas de Jacobi. Por otra parte, el segundo modelo trata la no linealidad de tipo Kerr de un modo exacto y proporciona una condición analítica para la eliminación de una de las dimensiones del espacio fásico en el cual las soluciones son buscadas numéricamente. A su vez se estudian las curvas de dispersión así como sus posibles transformaciones de modo asociadas para las GOMNL. Además de los modos de primer orden típicos en este tipo de estructuras, se muestra la existencia de modos de orden superior. Todos los modos de las GOMNL pueden ser divididos en dos familias: la de los modos simétricos y antisimétricos con nodos que se asemejan a los modos lineales de una guía de onda metálica lineal modificada; y la de los modos simétricos y asimétricos sin nodos y que no se asemejan a ningún tipo de modos lineales. En esta última familia, los modos simétricos aparecen a través de una bifurcación silla-nodo y los asimétricos a través de una bifurcación de Hopf. Se estudian también los efectos producidos sobre los diagramas de dispersión al variar el tamaño del núcleo y el contraste dieléctrico entre el núcleo y el recubrimiento metálico.

Abstract:
The object of the present research is to design and fabricate metal-dielectric thin film multilayer structures that make use of the nonlinear optical (NLO) response of Ag for efficient nonlinear absorption for sensor protection. These structures employ structural resonances to overcome the challenges of reflection and absorption that limit access to this large NLO response. The research consists of three parts: first, we present a comprehensive analysis of the contributions to the nonlinear optical response of Ag. Second, we present a systematic investigation of the linear optical properties of Metal-Dielectric Photonic Band-Gap (MDPBG) structures, including optimization of the structure for a particular transmittance spectrum. Third, we study the linear and nonlinear optical properties of Induced Transmission Filters (ITFs). Each of these parts includes experimental results backed by modeling and simulation.

Abstract:
Diese Arbeit ist der theoretische Untersuchung nichtlinearer optischer Prozesse in metall-dielektrischen Medien gewidmet, wobei Möglichkeiten zur Ausnutzung der erhöhten nichtlinearen Koeffizienten und der Feldüberhöhung durch metallische Nanoteilchen untersucht wurden. Die wichtigsten Ergebnisse beziehen sich auf eine Untersuchung der zeitabhängigen sättigbaren Absorption in Gläsern, die mit metallischen Nanoteilchen dotiert sind, ihrer physikalischen Ursache sowie verschiedener Anwendungen in der nichtlinearen Optik. Zur Untersuchung der Zeitabhängigkeit der nichtlinearen Rückwirkung wird unter Verwendung des semi-klassischen Zwei-Temperatur-Modells eine zeitabhängige Gleichung für die nichtlineare dielektrische Funktion der Metalle hergeleitet. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass solche Gläser, sich als sehr effiziente sättigbare Absorber im Spektralbereich vom sichtbaren bis nahen IR eignen. Für kurzwellige Laser im blau/violetten Spektralbereich wird die Dynamik der Modenkopplung in Festkörper- und Halbleiter-Scheibenlaser untersucht. Weiterhin wird ein neuer Mechanismus für die Realisierung von langsamem Licht vorgeschlagen und im Detail untersucht, der in solchen dotierten Gläsern in einem Pump-Probe Regime infolge der sättigbaren Absorption in der Nähe der Plasmonresonanz realisierbar ist. Weiterhin untersuchten wir die Möglichkeit einer Femtosekunden Plasmon Impulserzeugung durch Modenkopplung eines Oberflächen Plasmonlasers mit einem Bragg Resonator, der aus einer dünnen Schicht aus Silber sowie einem sättigbaren Absorbers und einem Verstärker besteht. Im letzten Teil der Arbeit werden Ergebnisse zur Erzeugung hoher Harmonischer in Edelgasen in der Nähe einer metallischen fraktalen rauen Oberfläche untersucht. Die Berechnungen zeigen eine Reduzierung der geforderten Intensität um drei Größenordnungen und eine um zwei Größenordnungen erhöhte Effizienz gegenüber der bisher experimentell realisierten HHG in der Nähe von metallischen "bow-tie"Nanostrukturen.
This work reports results of a theoretical study of nonlinear optical processes in metal-dielectric nanocomposites used for the increase of the nonlinear coefficients and for plasmonic field enhancement. The main results include the study of the transient saturable nonlinearity in dielectric composites doped with metal nanoparticles, its physical mechanism as well its applications in nonlinear optics. For the study of the transient response, a time-depending equation for the dielectric function of the nanocomposite using the semi-classical two-temperature model is derived. By using this approach, we study the transient nonlinear characteristics of these materials in comparison with preceding experimental measurements. The results show that these materials behave as efficient saturable absorbers for passive mode-locking of lasers in the spectral range from the visible to near IR. We present results for the modelocked dynamics in short-wavelength solid-state and semiconductor disk lasers; in this spectral range other efficient saturable absorbers do not exist. We suggest a new mechanism for the realization of slow light phenomenon by using glasses doped with metal nanoparticles in a pump-probe regime near the plasmonic resonance. Furthermore, we study femtosecond plasmon generation by mode-locked surface plasmon polariton lasers with Bragg reflectors and metal-gain-absorber layered structures. In the final part of the thesis, we present results for high-order harmonic generation near a metallic fractal rough surface. The results show a possible reduction of the pump intensities by three orders of magnitudes and two orders of magnitudes higher efficiency compared with preceding experimental results by using bow-tie nanostructures.

Abstract:
A new class of electrodes with nanometer-scale contact spacing can be produced at the edge of patterned metal/insulator/metal this film structures. A key challenge is to produce insulator layers with low leakage current and have pristine metal contacts for controlled molecular contacts. Atomic layer deposition of high quality Al2O3 thin films onto Au electrodes was enabled by surface modification with a self-assembled monolayer of -OH groups that react with a monolayer of trimethylaluminum gas source. Ar ion milling was then used to expose the edge of the Au/dielectric/Au structure for molecular electrode contacts. The junctions are characterized by atomic force microscope and tunnel current properties. The Au/self-assembled monolayer/Al2O3/Au tunnel junction, with a very thin oxide insulator layer (15.4 Å), is stable and has a small tunneling current density of about 0.20 ~ 0.75 A/cm2 at 0.5 V. Organometalic cluster molecules were attached to bridge the electrodes. Through tunnel current modeling, low temperature and photo current measurements, molecular current was found to be consistent with direct tunneling through the organic tethers to available states at the metal center. This novel electrode was also used to study the efficiency of organic conducting thin films where the photovoltaic efficiency can be improved when the electrode separation distance is below the exciton diffusion length. Copper (II) phthalocyanine (CuPc) was thermally evaporated between the nano-gap electrodes formed by Au/Al2O3/Au tunnel junctions. A large photocurrent enhancement over 50 times that of bulk CuPc film was observed when the electrode gap distance approached 10 nm. CuPc diffusion length is seen to be 10 nm consistent with literature reports. All devices show diode I-V properties due to a large Schottky barrier contact resistance between the small top Au electrode and the CuPc film. To add another dimension of nm-scale patterning, nanowires can be used as line-of-sight shadowmasks provided that nanowire location and diameter can be controlled. Lateral ZnO nanowires were selectively grown from the edge of a Si/Al2O3/Si multi-layer structure for potential integration into devices utilizing Si processing technology. Microstructural studies demonstrate a 2-step growth process in which the tip region, with a diameter ~ 10 nm, rapidly grew from the Al2O3 surface. Later a base growth with a diameter ~ 22 nm overgrew the existing narrow ZnO nanowire halting further tip growth. Kinetics studies showed surface diffusion on the alumina seed surface determined ZnO nanowire growth rate.

Abstract:
The ability of periodic surface variations to influence and control the electromagnetic response of interfaces and structures has been recognised for many years. Concurrently with these investigations, it has been found that individual particles and wires support interesting electromagnetic resonances. It has also long been established that multi-layer structures of planar interfaces may also result in interesting electromagnetic responses. Multi-layer structures of alternating dielectrics have been shown to produce periodic transmission resonances, however, if one of the dielectrics is replaced with a thin metallic film, it has recently been demonstrated that wide band-pass regions are formed in the electromagnetic response of the structure. The work presented in this thesis can be considered to be separated into two distinct, but related, areas. One of the areas involves the analysis of wire grid arrays. It is demonstrated that, like the case of deep surface relief perturbations, the waveguide modes in the slits can be considered as the evolution of surface modes on shallow surface relief perturbations. The perturbation effects of the slits on the surface modes and the effect of their excitation on optically thick and thin wires are also investigated. Finally, a new electromagnetic resonance is presented on both 1-dimensional and 2-dimensional wire grid arrays. It is shown that this is closely related to the localised surface modes that have been shown to occur on individual particles and wires. However, the resonance presented is shown to be subtly different from these modes, which typically result in a transmission and reflection extinction, because the planar geometry of the wires and the periodicity result in a reflection enhancement, even when the wires are optically thin. The second area of this work may be separated into two distinct sub-sections. The first section examines the electromagnetic response of dielectric/metal multi-layer stacks. These are confirmed to exhibit a periodic series of broad band-pass regions, with the spectral location of these regions being dependent only on the unit cell, not the full extent of the structures. The location of each band-edge of these regions are then demonstrated to be a result of the matching of boundary conditions between standing waves in the cavities having either a cos or a sin standing wave function, and the evanescent fields inside the metal layers having either a sinh or a cosh field distribution. The second section examines the electromagnetic response of continuous surface relief gratings, with a rectangular cross-section, whose ridges are very thin. It is shown that vertical standing waves form, similar to the cavity waveguide modes, except with the fields coupled through the wires not across the grooves. These are then shown to reach a finite limit frequency as the grating height tends to infinity. Thus, the resonances have evolved into a different mode beyond a certain grating amplitude. This mode is shown to to be equivalent to the band-pass region described in multi-layer metal/dielectric stacks. However, scattering and periodicity considerations require that only the low frequency band-edge can be coupled to at normal incidence, while only the high frequency band-edge may be coupled to at grazing incidence.
