Strong coupling-like phenomenon in single metallic nanoparticle embedded in molecular J-aggregates
Strong coupling-like phenomenon between plasmonic cavities and emitters provides a new way to realize the quantum-like effect controlling at microscale/nanoscale. We investigate the strong coupling-like phenomenon in the structure of single metallic nanoparticle embedded in molecular J-aggregates by the classical simulation method and show that the size of the metallic nanoparticle and the oscillator strength of molecular J-aggregates impact the strong coupling-like phenomenon. The strong coupling-like phenomenon is induced by the interactions between two dipoles formed by the metallic nanoparticle and molecular J-aggregates or the interactions between the dipole generated from molecular J-aggregates and the quadrupole generated from the metallic nanoparticle. The strong coupling-like phenomenon appears evidently with the increase in oscillator strength of molecular J-aggregates. The detuning energy linearly decreases with the increase in radius of the metallic nanoparticle. Our structure has potential applications in quantum networks, quantum key distributions and so on.
