Journal Article

Conventional surface plasmons have a wave vector exceeding that of light in vacuum, and therefore cannot be directly excited by light that is simply incident on the surface. However, we propose that a plasmon-polariton state can be formed at the boun...

Whispering gallery polaritons in cylindrical cavities (2007)
Journal Article

Strong coupling of the whispering gallery modes with bulk excitons in semiconductor cylinders is demonstrated theoretically. The strong-coupling threshold is governed by the radiative decay rate of optical modes, which we analyze as a function of the...

Interface photonic states at the boundary between a metal and a dielectric Bragg mirror (2007)
Journal Article

Tamm states of light are localized interface modes inside the light-cone. In contrast to the surface modes they can have a zero in-plane wave-vector. We show that they can be formed in both TE and TM polarizations at the boundary between the isotropi...
