    Abstract

    The interaction between magnetic quantum emitters and the local electromagnetic environment is a promising method to manipulate the spontaneous emission. However, it is severely limited by the weak interactions between the magnetic component of light and natural materials. Herein, we demonstrate that the special type of anapole states associated with the “onefold” electric toroidal dipole moment can be excited by efficient interaction between magnetic dipole emitters and silver oligomers. Based on magnetic anapole states, the radiative power is effectively suppressed with significant coupling between the emitter and the silver nonamer, physically providing an ideal playground for the study of non-radiative transitions. These findings not only introduce magnetic anapoles to plasmonics but also open a door for the development of new high-performance magnetic-dipole-based optoelectronic devices.

    1. INTRODUCTION

    Magnetic dipole (MD) spontaneous emission is very significant to some transition metals such as Cr3+ and lanthanide series ions such as Eu3+, Er3+, Ho3+, and Nd3+ that electric dipole (ED) transitions are forbidden to the first order [13]. Beyond the characteristics of the common spontaneous emission, MD spontaneous emission has a lot of unique optical properties that have a variety of applications, such as detecting the magnetic component of light [2]. Thus, the effective control of MD spontaneous emission behaviors is very significant to designing new optoelectronic devices, which has attracted tremendous attention in recent years [47]. However, MD transitions are inherently weaker than ED transitions. Besides, due to the absence of the magnetic monopole, the interactions between natural materials and the magnetic component of light are also very weak, which seriously limits the external manipulation of MD spontaneous emission behaviors according to the Purcell effect [810].

    Generally, both the enhancement and suppression of MD radiative power play significant roles in tailoring spontaneous emission. Taking account of the weak transitions of the MD, the enhancement and suppression of the radiative processes should be based on the great enhancement of the transition rates. In the past decade, most of the studies focused on enhancing MD spontaneous emission, but few studies touched the topic of suppressing it [4,11,12]. It was demonstrated that MD spontaneous emission can be effectively enhanced in artificial nanostructures supporting MD resonances [4,11,12]. Recently, a small number of studies considered the suppression of MD spontaneous emission [2,13]. Based on the destructive interaction between the MD moment of emitter itself and the induced MD moment of the nanostructures, the radiative power of MD emitters can be efficiently suppressed [4,13]. But this method is applicable only in a weak coupling context where the MD moment of the emitter itself and the induced MD moment are in the same magnitude. The MD transitions are not enhanced when the radiative power is suppressed. Physically, the destructively coherent modes generated by the efficient coupling between the MD emitters and the nanostructures are crucial to suppress the radiative power.

    Very recently, anapole states associated with the great enhancement of near-field and suppression of corresponding multipole scattering have had great implications for manipulating spontaneous emission behaviors [1419]. Anapole states are excited by the destructive interferences between Cartesian electromagnetic multipole moments and Cartesian toroidal moments that can be divided into electric and magnetic types [2023]. However, most previous studies show that the Cartesian electric toroidal dipole (ETD) moments correlated with the circulating magnetic field are excited by two or more electric current loops. More than one electric current loops exhibit high-order magnetic resonances [14,2426]. In a high symmetric system, the optical modes with different angular momentum cannot effectively interact with each other [2729]. Thus, the significant coupling between the MD point sources and high-symmetry nanostructures is expected to generate strong MD moments instead of ETD moments. Therefore, the challenge of manipulating MD spontaneous emission via anapole states is that the mode-matching condition cannot be met.

    Nevertheless, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) may bring the opportunities to solve this problem. Based on the plasmon hybridization, the noble metal oligomers that can be considered as plasmonic metamolecules are the good platforms for studying the magnetic component of light [3033]. The electric, magnetic, and toroidal multipoles can be easily excited by a plane wave or a point source by properly designing the spatial distributions of the plasmonic metamolecules [3436]. In addition, SPR can reduce the mode volumes and increase the local state densities by concentrating light in subwavelength scale, leading to the improvement of transition rates [37,38].

    In this paper, we demonstrate that the MD spontaneous emission can be effectively manipulated by the plasmonic anapole states associated with the “onefold” toroidal moments in silver oligomers. The so-called “onefold” Cartesian ETD moment is related to the circulating magnetic field that is excited by an asymmetric electric current loop. Meanwhile, this electric current loop correlating with MD resonance indicates that the onefold ETD will be excited by efficient coupling between the MD emitters and plasmonic metamolecules. Besides, the head-to-tail onefold Cartesian ETDs form a circulating electric component of light that leads to the excitation of the Cartesian magnetic toroidal dipole (MTD) moment in a silver nonamer. The magnetic anapole state is generated by the destructive interference between the Cartesian MTD moment and the Cartesian MD moment induced by the MD emitters [39]. Based on the magnetic anapole state, the MD radiative power is remarkably suppressed with the significant coupling between the emitter and the silver nonamer, which acts rather like the non-radiative transitions [40]. This study not only introduces magnetic anapoles to plasmonics but also provides new thinking for developing high-performance magnetic-dipole-based optoelectronic devices.

    2. ELECTRIC ANAPOLE STATES BASED ON ONEFOLD ETD MOMENTS

    According to classical electrodynamics, the electric field and magnetic field can excite each other, which defers to Ampére’s rule [41,42]. The symmetric circulating electric field is expected to excite the vertical magnetic field [41]. However, when the symmetry is broken, the vertical magnetic field will bend, forming an MD moment and a circulating magnetic field, shown in Fig. 1(a). The onefold Cartesian ETD moment is generated by the circulating magnetic field. Besides, the asymmetric circulating electric current also gives rise to an ED moment. Then, the electric anapole condition is achieved via the destructive interference between the Cartesian ED and ETD moment. Moreover, the head-to-tail Cartesian ETD moments can form a circulating electric component of light, leading to the generation of the Cartesian MTD moment, as shown in Fig. 1(b). The magnetic anapole state is excited by the out-of-phase coupling between the Cartesian MD moment and the Cartesian MTD moment, leading to the suppression of the spherical MD scattering.

The dark green ring shows the head-to-tail Cartesian ETD moments.

    In order to verify it, a silver trimer consisting of three nanodisks is designed. It should be noted that this structure supports MD resonance and has been reported both analytically and experimentally in many previous works [4345]. A monochromatic plane wave propagates along the z axis with the angle θ=80° and is polarized along the x axis, shown in Fig. 2(a). The silver trimer is suspended in the air with refractive index n=1. The refractive index data describing the optical response of silver is given by Johnson and Christy [46]. The multipole decomposition of the light scattering cross sections and scattering power are calculated using the finite element method performed by the commercial COMSOL Multiphysics software. We consider that all of the electric and magnetic multipoles locate at the center of mass of the silver trimer. The electric and magnetic multipole coefficients in spherical coordinates are given as [47] a(l,m)=(i)l1k2Z0OlmE0[π(2l+1)]1/2eimϕ{[ψl(kr)+ψl(kr)]Plm(cosθ)r^·Jsca(r)+ψl(kr)kr[ddθPlm(cosθ)r^·Jsca(r)imsinθPlm(cosθ)ϕ^·Jsca(r)]}d3r,b(l,m)=(i)l+1k2Z0OlmE0[π(2l+1)]1/2eimϕjl(kr)[imsinθPlm(cosθ)θ^·Jsca(r)+ddθPlm(cosθ)ϕ^·Jsca(r)]d3r,where l and m denote the order of the multipole components and the amount of the z component of angular momentum, respectively. Jsca(r)=iω[ε(r)εh]E(r) (εh is the dielectric constant of the surrounding medium) and Z0 are the scattering current density and impedance, respectively. Olm reads Olm=[(2l+1)(lm)!/(l+m)!]1/2[4πl(l+1)]1/2. ψl(kr) given by the Riccati–Bessel function. Pml(cosθ) represents the associated Legendre polynomials. E0 is the electric field amplitude of the incident light. θ and φ are the zenith angle and azimuthal angle, respectively.

    The lth order electric and magnetic multipole scattering cross sections are expressed as σEl=πk2m=ll(2l+1)|a(l,m)|2,σMl=πk2m=ll(2l+1)|b(l,m)|2.

    The multipole cross sections of the silver trimers are shown in Fig. 2. According to Fig. 2(b), there is a broad ED scattering peak at the wavelength of 582 nm with the weak MD overlapping spectrum in the symmetric silver trimer. If reducing the gaps g1, the ED spectrum exhibits a dip at the wavelength of 612 nm, shown in Fig. 2(c). On the contrary, the contribution of the MD component increases. Continuing to reduce g1, the ED component can be further suppressed at the wavelength of 647 nm, and the proportion of the MD component increases, shown in Fig. 2(d). The previous reports claimed that the dip is magnetic-based Fano resonance excited by the ED mode and MD mode [43,44]. In fact, the suppression of the ED is based on the achievement of the anapole state. As the coherent modes, both the Cartesian ED moment and ETD moment are “bright modes” that can be directly excited by the incident wave. The totally destructive interference between the Cartesian ED moment and ETD moment is allowed, leading to the complete suppression of the ED moment [14].

    To validate the analyses above, the Cartesian ED and ETD cross sections are calculated [48], σscaED=c2k4Z12πI0|p|2,σscaETD=c2k6Z12πI0|T(e)|2,where p=dr3Jsca(r)/iω is the Cartesian ED moment and T(e)=dr3{[r·Jsca(r)]r2r2Jsca(r)}/10c is the Cartesian ETD moment. Jsca(r) is the scattering current density, and I0 is illumination intensity of the incident plane wave. The ideal anapole condition is achieved, where p=ikT(e) is satisfied [14].

    Though the Cartesian ETD moment can be excited by the asymmetric circulating electric current shown in Fig. 3(a), the relative strong electric field between the gap of the two bottom nanodisks forms the strong ED moment in the equidistant silver trimer. Thus, the spherical ED scattering is expected to exhibit Lorentzian line shape. But according to the phase of the Cartesian ED and ETD moments shown in Fig. 3(a), the out-of-phase coupling leads to the suppression of the spherical ED moment to some extent. Thus, the spherical ED scattering exhibits a small dip at the wavelength of 582 nm. Reducing the gaps g1 will increase the overlap between the top and the two bottom nanodisks, leading to the increase of the coupling strength between these nanodisks. The relative strong electric near-field between the top and the two bottom nanodisks excites the circulating magnetic field that leads to the generation of the remarkable Cartesian ETD moment, shown in Fig. 3(b). The phase difference between the Cartesian ETD and Cartesian ED moments is about π, which indicates the destructive interference between them. Then the anapole state is excited at the wavelength of 612 nm. Continuing to reduce g1 will further increase the coupling strength between the modes supported by the top and the two bottom nanodisks. Then, the stronger coupling between the Cartesian ED and ETD moments leads to the total suppression of spherical ED scattering, and the ideal anapole state is achieved at the wavelength of 647 nm, shown in Fig. 3(c). It should be noted that reducing incident angle θ will decrease the overlap between the top and the two bottom nanodisks, leading to the weak coupling between the Cartesian ED and ETD moments. The theoretical results are compatible with the experimental results [43]. The excitation of the electric anapole state suggests that the Cartesian ETD moment can be effectively generated by an asymmetric electric current loop. In addition, due to the circulating magnetic field excited by one asymmetric electric field loop, we expect a stronger MD scattering cross section peak at the wavelength of the anapole condition. If the circulating magnetic field is excited by two or more electric loops, the corresponding high-order magnetic cross section peak will be weaker than that in this work.

    3. TAILORING MD EMISSION BEHAVIOR BY THE MAGNETIC ANAPOLE STATE

    As a point source, the MD emitter can interact with the plasmonic metamolecules. The optical modes with different angular momenta can be excited via reducing the symmetry of the nanosystems [27]. On one hand, the optical properties of these modes are the spontaneous emission behavior of the MD emitter. On the other hand, the induced local fields of these optical modes will build the electromagnetic environment and have a great influence on the MD transitions of the emitters [8]. In order to tailor MD spontaneous emission to a greater extent, the two processes should be based on the efficient interactions between the MD emitter and the nanostructures. Therefore, the nanostructures should support MD resonance or the modes that can couple with MD modes. To characterize the optical properties of the surroundings, we only take the scattering power emission from the nanostructures into consideration and ignore the power radiated from the emitter itself in the multipole decomposition. In addition, the spherical multipole scattering power decomposition is calculated by revising the coefficients in front of the integral sign as (i)l1k2Olm/[π(2l+1)]1/2 and (i)l+1k2Olm/[π(2l+1)]1/2 in Eqs. (1) and (2), respectively [6].

    According to Fig. 2, the strong MD resonance can be excited in a silver trimer. The MD emitter is set in the center of the silver trimer, and the orientation of the MD moment is perpendicular to the trimer plane. The coupling strength between the MD emitter and the silver trimer is very strong, and the induced MD moment is larger than the dipole moment itself, with nearly all power emitted from the silver trimer scattering. Thus, the normalized MD scattering power exhibits a Lorentzian line shape, and the contributions of other multipole scattering spectra are negligible, shown in Fig. 4(a). Note that the MD resonant peak is fixed at 590 nm which is the wavelength of the MD transition of Eu3+(D05F17). The result well agrees with the conclusion of the previous work [4]. In fact, as the silver trimer is highly symmetrical for the MD emitters, only MD modes can be excited so that the spontaneous emission behaviors of the MD emitters cannot be effectively tailored in this case. To reduce the symmetry, two silver disks are added near every cell of the silver trimer, forming a silver nonamer [see the inset of Fig. 4(b)]. Surprisingly, the normalized radiative power of the silver nonamer exhibits a dip at the wavelength 590 nm when the MD emitter is put in the center of the silver nonamer, shown in Fig. 4(b).

The insets are the structure schematics; for the trimer, the radii of the three silver nanodisks are 61 nm with the gap of 16 nm between adjacent ones. The silver nonamer is formed by adding two small nanodisks around every disk of the trimer with the radii of 56 nm and the gap of 10 nm between adjacent ones. The gaps between the small nanodisks and the closest nanodisks of the trimer are 8 nm. The MD emitters are set in the center of the trimer and nonamer with the orientation along the z axis, respectively.

The insets are the structure schematics; for the trimer, the radii of the three silver nanodisks are 61 nm with the gap of 16 nm between adjacent ones. The silver nonamer is formed by adding two small nanodisks around every disk of the trimer with the radii of 56 nm and the gap of 10 nm between adjacent ones. The gaps between the small nanodisks and the closest nanodisks of the trimer are 8 nm. The MD emitters are set in the center of the trimer and nonamer with the orientation along the z axis, respectively.

    The suppression of MD scattering power at 590 nm is based on the magnetic anapole state. To validate it, we calculate the Cartesian MD and MTD scattering power of the silver trimer and nonamer, respectively. The Cartesian MD scattering power and MTD scattering power are expressed as PscaMD=c2k4Z12π|m|2,PscaMTD=c2k6Z12π|T(m)|2,where m=dr3[r×Jsca(r)]/2c, T(m)=k2dr3[r2r×Jsca(r)]/20 are Cartesian MD and MTD moments, respectively. The out-of-phase Cartesian magnetic and magnetic toroidal moments cancel each other where m=ikT(m). Due to the high symmetry of the silver trimer, the Cartesian MTD moment cannot be effectively excited, shown in Fig. 5(a). Besides, the induced circulating near-field distribution shown in Fig. 5(a) indicates a strong MD resonance. As a point source, the amplitude and phase of the MD emitter depending on the spatial distance are divergent. Thus, the asymmetric resonance can be realized even in the rotating symmetric nanostructures. Due to the different separations between the nanodisks and the MD emitter, the remarkable Cartesian MTD moment can be generated in the silver nonamer, shown in Fig. 5(b). The asymmetric distributions of the electric near-field of the three trimers indicated by the gray dashed lines in Fig. 5(b) are the same as the near-field that can excite the onefold ETD moments shown in Figs. 3(b) and 3(c). According to the distribution of the three trimers, the head-to-tail Cartesian ETD moments are generated, leading to the excitation of the Cartesian MTD moment. This physical mechanism is illuminated in Fig. 1(b). Note that the intensity of the electric near-field between the gaps of the three trimers indicated by the gray dashed lines shown in the inset of Fig. 5(b) is very weak, which suggests that the head-to-tail Cartesian ETD moments are excited by the circulating magnetic fields that are associated with asymmetric electric near-field loops of the three trimers. Besides, the trivial magnetic quadrupole scattering power also supports the above analyses. Due to the Cartesian MTD moment formed by the onefold Cartesian ETD moment, it can be excited by the efficient interactions between the MD emitters and the silver nonamer. The suppression of MD scattering of the magnetic anapole state may lead to the suppression of the radiative power of the MD emitter [see Fig. 5(b)].

    In addition, the normalized radiative power of the nanosystem is calculated to evaluate the effects of the magnetic anapole state. The normalized radiative power exhibits Lorentzian line shape and is extremely enhanced when the MD emitter is put in the center of the silver trimer, shown in Fig. 6(a). However, based on the magnetic anapole state, the radiative power of the silver nonamer is remarkably suppressed at the wavelength of 590 nm, shown in Fig. 6(b). Notably, the suppression of the radiative power is mainly based on the interference between the induced modes that are excited by the significant coupling between the emitter and the nanostructure. Different from the previous study, the two strong peaks of the radiative power indicate that the radiative behavior can be tailored in the context that the MD emitter is significantly coupled to the silver nonamer [4]. The suppression of MD radiative power can reduce the radiative loss and can have great implications for the efficient energy transfer.

    4. CONCLUSION

    In summary, we have demonstrated that MD spontaneous emission behavior can be effectively tailored by the interactions between the emitters and the plasmonic metamolecules. By reducing the symmetry of the nanosystem, the magnetic anapole state associated with the onefold ETD can be excited by the efficient interactions between the MD emitter and the silver oligomers. The magnetic anapole states accompanied by strong suppression of MD scattering can lead to the pronounced suppression of the spontaneous radiative power with the significant coupling between the emitter and the silver nonamer. The efficient enhancement and suppression of MD emission indicate that the spontaneous emission behavior of the MD emitter can be effectively tailored in the context that the MD emitter is significantly coupled to the silver nonamer. These findings not only introduce magnetic anapoles to plasmonics but also set the foundation for the development of new high-performance magnetic-dipole-based optoelectronic devices.
