We have studied the emission of ortho-positronium from alkali-metal coated polycrystalline tungsten surfaces. The positronium time-of-flight spectra show that the yield of the 5 eV positronium component increases by alkali-metal coating. In addition, a low energy positronium component appears by Cs or K coating. We suggest that this component is due to positron energy loss by inter-band transition or surface plasmon excitation.

The phenomenon of coupling between light and surface plasmon polaritons requires specific momentum matching conditions. In the case of a single scattering object on a metallic surface, such as a nanoparticle or a nanohole, the coupling between a broadband effect, i.e., scattering, and a discrete one, such as surface plasmon excitation, leads to Fano-like resonance lineshapes. The necessary phase matching requirements can be used to engineer the light–plasmon coupling and to achieve a directional plasmonic excitation. Here, we investigate this effect by using a chiral nanotip to excite surface plasmons with a strong spin-dependent azimuthal variation. This effect can be described by a Fano-like interference with a complex coupling factor that can be modified thanks to a symmetry breaking of the nanostructure.
