Abstract
Theoretically predicted ‘‘dipole lasing’’, i.e., spontaneous excitation of coherent metal nano-particle dipole oscillations through interaction with a quantum-dot two-level system subject to population inversion is demonstrated. Equations for dipole lasing are the same as equations for ordinary laser, where the dipole momentum of nano-particle stands for the electromagnetic field cavity mode. Dipole lasing frequency corresponds to the localized plasmon resonance of the nano-particle. Dipole momentum of nano-particle leads to coherent dipole radiation. Optical cavity is not necessary, the size of the dipole laser can be smaller than the optical wavelength, i.e. it is dipole nano-laser. Threshold conditions and optical bistability in dipole nano-lasers are considered.
