    Abstract: A system and method suitable for selection, manipulation, and analysis of individual particles within a fluid medium. The system and method involve manipulating the particles by contacting the fluid medium with a plasmonic nanoantenna, illuminating the plasmonic nanoantenna with a source of light such that the plasmonic nanoantenna acts as a nanoscale heat source resulting in localized heating of the fluid medium creating local gradients in the electrical properties of the fluid medium that yield plasmonic trapping sites in the vicinity of the plasmonic nanoantenna, and applying an alternating current electric field in the fluid medium to create electrothermoplasmonic flow around the plasmonic nanoantenna. The electrothermoplasmonic flow transports at least one of the particles towards the plasmonic nanoantenna and the particle is trapped by at least one of the plasmonic trapping sites.

    Abstract: A sub-wavelength scale optical lasing device, for the controlled transfer of a signal in nano- and other small-scale technologies. An array of sub-wavelength size holes is first milled, or otherwise embedded, into a thin metal film. This film is combined with optically active media to compensate for losses of the metal. Optical signals are emitted in the active media, and then transferred to the metal so that surface plasmon polaritons are excited. Lasing occurs as a result of the compensation of plasmonic losses by the available optical gain.

    Abstract: A plasmonic system is disclosed. The system includes at least one polarizer that is configured to provide at least one linearly polarized broadband light beam, an anisotropic plasmonic metasurface (APM) assembly having a plurality of nanoantennae each having a predetermined orientation with respect to a global axis representing encoded digital data, the APM assembly configured to receive the at least one linearly polarized broadband light beam and by applying localized surface plasmon resonance reflect light with selectable wavelengths associated with the predetermined orientations of the nanoantennae, and at least one analyzer that is configured to receive the reflected light with selectable wavelength, wherein the relative angles between each of the at least one analyzers and each of the at least one polarizers are selectable with respect to the global axis, thereby allowing decoding of the digital data.

    Abstract: Disclosed herein are nanoparticle-based plasmonic solutions to therapeutic applications employing titanium nitride (TiN) and other non-stoichiometric compounds as the plasmonic material. Current solutions are suboptimal because they require complex shapes, large particle sizes, and a narrow range of sizes, in order to achieve plasmonic resonances in the biological window. The nanoparticles discloses herein provide plasmonic resonances occurring in the biological window even with small sizes, simple shapes, and better size dispersion restrictions. Local heating efficiencies of such nanoparticles outperform currently used Au and transition metal nanoparticles. The use of smaller particles with simpler shapes and better heating efficiencies allows better diffusion properties into tumor regions, larger penetration depth of light into the biological tissue, and the ability to use excitation light of less power.
