Applied Physics has been founded in 1973 by H.K.V. Lotsch and is an international journal for the rapid publication of experimental and theoretical investigations in applied research. It is issued in two parts: Applied Physics A - Materials Science and Processing and Applied Physics B - Lasers and Optics . Both parts appear monthly in issues of varying size. Six issues constitute one volume and two volumes are normally published per year. Applied Physics B covers the broad field of laser physics linear and nonlinear optics ultrafast phenomena photonic devices optical and laser materials quantum optics laser spectroscopy of atoms molecules and clusters and use of laser radiation in chemistry and biochemistry. In addition to regular papers Applied Physics B features invited reviews. Fields of topical interest are covered by feature issues. The journal also includes a rapid communication section for the speedy publication of important and particularly interesting results. Instructions how to prepare and submit manuscripts are to be found on an extra page of the journal. Once a manuscript has been accepted it is published quickly and free of page charges if page restrictions are observed (see

Applied Physics B

The plasmon–exciton couplings in Ag–CuCl-coated nanowires (ACNWs) have been investigated by using the scattering theory and the finite element method. It is found with increasing the shell thickness that the dipole plasmon resonance of the Ag nanowire can be tuned through the exciton resonance in the CuCl shell. The strong coupling between the plasmon resonance in the Ag nanowire and the exciton resonance in the CuCl shell leads to two new hybridized plexcitonic modes. The dispersion curves of the plexcitonic modes in the ACNWs are studied, and the obtained splitting energy is about 88 meV. We further find that the destructive interference between the plasmon and exciton resonances results in the plasmon–exciton induced transparency. As the TE wave propagates through the ACNW array, an extraordinary transmittance can be found in the ACNW array at the scattering dip of the ACNW.

The weak plasmonexciton couplings tend to enhance the absorption or emission of exciton systems [22].
