Abstract
Controlling and manipulating light-matter interaction phenomena at the nanoscale leads to a variety of fascinating effects that are currently the focus of an intense research from both a fundamental and technological perspectives. In this talk, I will summarize the most recent advances on the fabrication and performance features of coherent light sources operating at the nanoscale, which are attained by the interaction of localized surface plasmons with optical gain nonlinear dielectric media [1]. The optical gain is provided by functional ferroelectric platforms, either by stimulated emission [2] or by nonlinear frequency conversion processes [3]. The mechanisms responsible for the intensification of the radiation–matter interaction processes are discussed in each case.
