Article Synopsis
  • Recent advances in plasmonics have led to the creation of nanolasers, modulators, and detectors that surpass the optical diffraction limit.
  • The study features a surface-plasmon-polariton (SPP) nanolaser built with a ZnO nanowire on a single-crystalline aluminum substrate, which simplifies the structure by eliminating the need for an insulator.
  • This new SPP nanolaser achieves a lasing threshold of 20 MW/cm², significantly lower than previous designs, and can operate at temperatures up to 353 K, marking a key advancement in nanolaser technology.

Significant advances have been made in the development of plasmonic devices in the past decade. Plasmonic nanolasers, which display interesting properties, have come to play an important role in biomedicine, chemical sensors, information technology, and optical integrated circuits. However, nanoscale plasmonic devices, particularly those operating in the ultraviolet regime, are extremely sensitive to the metal and interface quality.
