Self-Quenching Effect of the Decay of Localized Surface Plasmons: Classical and Quantum Perspectives

Krystyna Kolwas

Localized surface plasmons in metal nanoparticles self-quench their decay rates in a size-dependent manner for higher multipole modes.

Claims

C1strongest claim

The derived self-consistent formulation offers analytical expressions for the total damping rates, which demonstrate a size-dependent suppression displayed in higher multipolarity modes attributed to the impact of the self-quenching effect resulting from the coaction of radiative and non-radiative channels.

C2weakest assumption

That a plasmonic quasi-particle can be treated as a quantum emitter embedded within a self-created resonant near-field nano-cavity, allowing a direct extension of Fermi's Golden Rule to include coupling with the self-generated cavity impact without additional fitting parameters.

C3one line summary

A quantum-informed model for localized surface plasmon decay in metal nanoparticles derives size-dependent self-quenching in damping rates for higher multipole modes.
