Magnetic Purcell Enhancement by Plasmon-Induced Magnetic Anapole Mode in the Gap of Oblate Nano-Ellipsoid on Metal Mirror Structure
Magnetic anapole states associated with the destructive interference between magnetic dipole and magnetic toroidal moments result in suppressed scattering accompanied by strongly enhanced near fields. Here, we demonstrate the existence of such modes in the gap of a gold oblate nano-ellipsoid on gold mirror (ONEOM) structures and observe a pronounced Purcell factor enhancement for magnetic dipole radiation upon introducing magnetic dipoles into the gap. We systematically investigate the dependence of the magnetic radiation Purcell factor on gap size and structural parameters. Notably, a 230-fold Purcell factor enhancement is achieved for the ONEOM configuration. This result highlights the potential of ONEOM structures in applications requiring efficient magnetic dipole emission, including nonlinear frequency conversion, plasmonic sensing, and single-photon sources.
