Article Citation - WoS: 10Citation - Scopus: 10Modification of a Plasmonic Nanoparticle Lifetime by Coupled Quantum Dots(Amer Physical Soc, 2019) Salmanogli, AhmadIn this study, the interaction between a plasmonic nanoparticle and coupled quantum dots is investigated to identify how the coupled particles can manipulate the plasmonic nanoparticle decay rate. This subject is very important, because most applications of the plasmonic system are restricted due to the nanoparticle decay rate and the related losses. Therefore, in the present work, we try to find out how and by which method the plasmonic nanoparticle decay rate can be manipulated. For this purpose, a plasmonic system containing a nanoparticle coupled to some small quantum dots is designed. The system dynamics of motions are analyzed with Heisenberg-Langevin equations. These equations are analyzed to study the effect of the plasmonic nanoparticles on the quantum dots' decay rate. In the following, as an interesting point, the quantum dot coupling influence on the nanoparticle's decay rate is theoretically analyzed in the transient and steady-state conditions. Additionally, a theoretical formula is derived by which one can explicitly find the dependency of the modified decay rate of the plasmonic nanoparticle on the number of the coupled quantum dots and the coupling strength. The simulation results show that it is possible to effectively control the nanoparticles' decay rate with regard to the application for which they are utilized.Article Citation - WoS: 31Citation - Scopus: 31Ionization Energies, Coulomb Explosion, Fragmentation, Geometric, and Electronic Structures of Multicharged Boron Clusters Bn (n=2-13)(Amer Physical Soc, 2011) Tas, Murat; Ozdogan, Cem; Boustani, Ihsan; Akman, NurtenBased on the ab initio quantum chemical methods, we have determined fragmentation channels, ionization energies, and the Coulomb explosion of multicharged boron clusters B-n (n = 2-13), where n is the cluster size. The electron-deficient boron clusters sustain more stability and hardly fragment when they are negatively charged. Stability of boron clusters decreases with increasing ionization. Only by the first ionization the odd-size clusters are more stable than the even-size clusters. Further ionizations cause the repulsive Coulomb force between the constituent atoms to get stronger, and lead first to metastable states, then to the Coulomb explosion of clusters. None of the cationic boron clusters studied remain stable after six times ionization. The critical charge for metastability is estimated as Q(m) <= n/2 for even-size clusters, and Q(m) <= 1/2 (n - 1) for odd-size clusters. In addition, the critical charge for the Coulomb explosion is found to be Q(c) = n/2 + 1 for even-size clusters, and Q(c) = 1/2(n + 1) for odd-size clusters. Relative stability of clusters with respect to their nearest neighbors is determined from the analysis of their second energy difference data. Several dissociation channels of B-n(+) and B-13(Q) isomers with the lowest fragmentation energies are presented. All of the vibrational frequencies are found positive indicating that no transition state is possible for the clusters studied. Reliability of our data is verified with a good agreement with experimental results.
