| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to theoretically demonstrate an unconventional nano-system with visible emission line that can be inversely populated by weak infrared irradiation. By employing the coupled oscillator model for the quantum mechanically coupled system with a metallic antenna and a molecule, we have confirmed the population inversion of the molecule and its up-converted luminescence. Then, we have succeeded in developing a new numerical method to take into account explicit spatial geometry of the metallic structures, and it has been clarified that an even weak pumping can generate the molecular population inversion if the plasmon-assisted process excists. Further, by using an independent model, we have demonstrated that the superfluorescence occurs when many such systems are dispersed in a region even if the area of the region is much wider than the light wavelength.
