Abstract
We experimentally study the optical field distribution on disordered plasmonic networks by far-field wavefront shaping. We observe nonlocal fluctuations of the field intensity mediated by plasmonic modes up to a distance of 10 μm from the excitation area. In particular we quantify the spatial extent of these fluctuations as a function of the metal filling fraction in the plasmonic network, and we identify a clear increase around percolation due to the existence of extended plasmonic modes. This paves the way toward far-field coherent control of plasmonic modes on similar disordered plasmonic networks. We expect these results to be relevant for quantum networks, coherent control, and light–matter interactions in such disordered films where long-range interactions are critical.
