Abstract With the rapid development of information and communication technology, akey objective in the field of optoelectronic integrated devices is to reducethe nano-laser size and energy consumption. Photonics nanolasers are unableto exceed the diffraction limit and typically exhibit low modulation ratesof several GHz. In contrast, plasmonic nanolaser utilizes highly confinedsurface plasmon polariton (SPP) mode that can exceed diffraction limit andtheir strong Purcell effect can accelerate the modulation rates to severalTHz. Herein, we propose a parametrically tunable artificial plasmonicnanolasers based on metal-insulator-semiconductor-insulator-metal (MISIM) structure, which demonstrates its ability to compress the mode field volumeto $\lambda /14$. As the pump power increases, the proposed artificialplasmonic nanolaser exhibits 20-nm-wide output spectrum. Additionally, weinvestigate the effects of various cavity parameters on the nanolaser'soutput threshold, offering potentials for realizing low-threshold artificialplasmonic nanolasers. Moreover, we observe a blue shift in the centerwavelength of the nanolaser output with thinner gain layer thickness,predominantly attributed to the increased exciton-photon coupling strength.Our work brings inspiration to several areas, including spaser-basedinterconnects, nano-LEDs, spontaneous emission control, miniaturization ofphoton condensates, eigenmode engineering of plasmonic nanolasers, andoptimal design driven by artificial intelligence (AI).

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
