dc.description.abstract | Material losses in metals are a central bottleneck in plasmonics for many applications. Here we propose and theoretically demonstrate that metal losses can be successfully mitigated with dielectric particles on metallic films, giving rise to hybrid dielectric-metal resonances. In the far field, they yield strong and efficient scattering, beyond even the theoretical limits of all-metal and all-dielectric structures. In the near field, they offer high Purcell factor (>5000), high quantum efficiency (>90%), and highly directional emission at visible and infrared wavelengths. Their quality factors can be readily tailored from plasmonic-like (∼10) to dielectric-like (∼103), with wide control over the individual resonant coupling to photon, plasmon, and dissipative channels. Compared with conventional plasmonic nanostructures, such resonances show robustness against detrimental nonlocal effects and provide higher field enhancement at extreme nanoscopic sizes and spacings. These hybrid resonances equip plasmonics with high efficiency, which has been the predominant goal since the field’s inception.
