Abstract
The unique properties of surface plasmon polaritons, such as strong field confinement and local field enhancement effects, make them ideal candidates to enhance and shape the emission of luminescent nanoparticles. Of these nanoparticles, quantum dots are highly versatile, suitable for vastly different applications due to their size and material tunability. In many cases however, the emission wavelength of the quantum dots is fixed after manufacturing, allowing no control over the in situ emission properties. Here, we show fully optical, in situ tunability of the emission wavelength of quantum dots, with shifts of over 30 nm, employing surface plasmon polaritons to control the emission wavelength.
