Abstract

The plasmonic J-pole antenna is the nanoscale version of a radio frequency design, consisting of a half wavelength arm connected to a quarter wavelength feed pair. Here, we report on an optical J-pole antenna that displays both a dipole (1015 nm) and quadrupole resonance (653 nm). The excitation of the quadrupole resonance is optimum at an angle of incidence directly related to the geometry of the antenna, demonstrating the flexibility of the design. The J-pole antenna shows great promise for enhancing and shaping the angular emission pattern of quantum emitters.
