Phys. Rev. Lett. 86, 4950–4953 (2001)Optical Analogy to Electronic Quantum Corrals
See accompanying Physics Focus We describe full multiple-scattering calculations of localized surface photonic states set up by lithographically designed nanostructures made of a finite number of dielectric pads deposited on a planar surface. The method is based on a numerical solution of the dyadic Dyson's equation. When the pads are arranged to form a closed circle, we find field patterns that look like the electronic charge density recently observed above quantum corrals. We propose two experimental techniques that could be used to observe these electromagnetic modes in direct space. © 2001 The American Physical Society URL:
