Experimental Observation of Localized Optical Excitations in Random Metal-Dielectric Films
Abstract
Localization of optical excitations within subwavelength areas of a random metal-dielectric film is observed using near-field scanning optical microscopy. This effect is attributed to Anderson localization of surface plasmon modes in a semicontinuous metal film. The localized modes are seen as giant fluctuations of local electric fields spatially concentrated in ``hot'' spots, where the fields are much greater than the applied field. The local near-field spectra consisting of strong resonance peaks are detected and shown to depend markedly on the sample site probed. The observed spectral peaks correspond to localized modes of random metal-dielectric films.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
