Abstract
The observation and electrical manipulation of infrared surface plasmons in graphene have
triggered a search for similar photonic capabilities in other atomically thin materials that
enable electrical modulation of light at visible and near-infrared frequencies, as well as
strong interaction with optical quantum emitters. Here, we present a simple analytical
description of the optical response of such kinds of structures, which we exploit to
investigate their application to light modulation and quantum optics. Specifically, we show
that plasmons in one-atom-thick noble-metal layers can be used both to produce
complete tunable optical absorption and to reach the strong-coupling regime in the
interaction with neighboring quantum emitters. Our methods are applicable to any
plasmon-supporting thin materials, and in particular, we provide parameters that allow us
to readily calculate the response of silver, gold, and graphene islands. Besides their
interest for nanoscale electro-optics, the present study emphasizes the great potential of
these structures for the design of quantum nanophotonics devices
