Abstract

Plasmonic nanocavities enable extreme light–matter interactions by pushing light down to the nanoscale. The numerical simulation is carried out systematically on the slotted $\Phi$-shaped Si disk system with the super-dipole mode based on the analysis of the scattering strength of electric and toroidal dipoles. New blocks are introduced to the zero-field strength region of a slotted Si disk system as a function of the field enhancement factors. The far-field scattering characteristics and near-field electromagnetic field distributions are investigated by a multipole decomposition analysis to elucidate the intrinsic causes of the field enhancement. In the hybrid metal-dielectric nanoantenna, the $\Phi$-shaped Si structure is prepared by superimposing Au nanoantennas for further field enhancement. In addition, the effects of the placement of an electric dipole emitter on the Purcell factor are derived. The geometric volume of the system is increased, and the electric field strength is improved, leading to an electric field increase of ${\sim}{30}$. Coupling between the super-dipole mode of the dielectric nanostructure and plasmonic modes of the metallic nanoantenna produces an enhancement as large as 16 times. Our results reveal a greatly enhanced super-dipole mode by electromagnetic coupling in composite structures, which will play a significant role in enhanced nonlinear photonics, near-field enhancement spectroscopy, and strong photon–exciton coupling.
