Abstract

In this chapter, we focus on the design and characteristics of a hybrid photonic-plasmonic nanoresonator using 3D finite-difference time-domain simulations. This structure is capable of localization of high intensity light in a subwavelength hotspot, whilst maintaining a high quality factor making it suitable for applications such as near field optical trapping and manipulation, sensing and spectroscopy of nanoparticles.
