For optical control of plasmons metals require a large amount of power in the control pulse, yielding a small modulation depth. Here, Sim et al. fabricate arrays of Bi2Se3 and report a modulation depth of 2,400% at 1.5 THz with an optical fluence of 45 μJ/cm2, demonstrating a novel route for controlling plasmons.
