Broadband measurement of local density of optical states by plasmonic nanofocusing spectral interferometry — •Abbas Chimeh1, Martin Esmann2, Anke Korte1, Jinhui Zhong1, Nahid Talebi3, and Christoph Lienau11Universität Oldenburg, Oldenburg, Germany — 2Centre de Nanosciences et de Nanotechnologies, Paris, — 3Universität Kiel, Kiel, Germany

The local density of optical states (LDOS) is one of the most fundamental quantities in nanophotonics [1]. Experimental mapping of the LDOS enables to understand how a quantum emitter is coupled to its nanostructred photonic environment. Here, we demonstrate a novel experimental approach to directly measure the LDOS with <10 nm spatial resolution in a broad spectral range. Surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) propagating along a conical gold taper are adiabatically converted to a local dipole mode at the very apex [2], which can locally excite and detect the optical states around single gold nanoparticles. Integration of an inline interferometer in this plasmonic nanofocusing taper allows us to extract amplitude a phase of local light scattering spectra of gold nanoparticles and quantify line broadenings and spectral shifts induced by tip-sample coupling [3]. We show that, in the limit of weak tip-sample coupling, this measurements directly probe the projected local density of optical states of the plasmonic system.
