Abstract:
The interactions between plasmonic and photonic modes of a cavity-coupled plasmonic crystal are studied in diffraction and diffractionless regimes, which lead us to the understanding of coherent interactions between electron plasma, higher order cavity, and diffraction modes. The strong interaction between plasmonic and photonic modes is shown to enhance as well as suppress surface plasmon resonance based on cavity phase relation. Numerical and analytical approaches are developed to accurately explain the physics of the interactions evident in their characteristic dispersion graphs. Further experimental measurements confirm the theoretical predictions.

In alkenes, spin information is communicated via σ–π overlap, as seen in allylic (four-bond) and homoallylic (five-bond) couplings. These coupling interactions are stronger when the σ bond is parallel to the alkene...

As Δν decreases and the signals move closer, the doublets appear increasingly distorted. The intensities of the inner lines increase at the cost of those of the outer lines as the signals are...
