  • Utilizing work function differences between TMOs and graphene to induce charge transfer.
  • Employing nano-infrared imaging to characterize plasmon polaritons.
  • Inserting dielectric van der Waals spacers to tune carrier densities.

Main Results:

  • Demonstrated ambipolar low-loss plasmon polaritons at TMO/graphene interfaces.
  • Achieved precise control over electron and hole densities using dielectric spacers.
  • Obtained plasmons with near-intrinsic quality factors.
  • Imprinted plasmonic cavities with nanoscale precision doping profiles.

Conclusions:

  • The oxidation-activated charge transfer strategy offers a new route for programming graphene plasmonics.
  • This method enables the creation of advanced nanophotonic devices, including plasmonic whispering-gallery resonators.
