*Giant Surface Plasmon Induced Drag Effect (SPIDEr) in Metal Nanowires* The properties and behavior of Surface plasmon polaritons(SPP) will vary as a function of their lifetimes. In LENR, a short lived SPP performs a different job than its longer lived brothers. The shortest lived SPP will only exist on a femtosecond time scale. Metals support short lived SPPs that exert forces on electrons causing an SPP-enhanced photon drag effect (PDE). A pronounced drag effect begins to take hold under the conditions of strong nanoplasmonic confinement, when the SPP localization radius is less than the skin depth (∼ 25 nm). This effect has not been widely studied, exploited theoretically or experimentally in nanoplasmonics. In more detail. a giant surface plasmon induced drag effect (SPIDEr) in metal nanowires acts very fast, with response on the femtosecond time scale. Recent research shows that the ultra short, nanolocalized SPP pulses exert great forces on electrons in thin nanowires, inducing giant THz electromotive force (emf) along the SPP propagation direction. In thin (∼ 5 nm radius) nanowires this emf can reach ∼ 10 V, with nanolocalized THz fields as high as ∼ 1 MV/cm. Such THz fields have previously been generated in the far zone, where they produce non-perturbative effects, but not on the nanoscale. In contrast, the plasmonic metal based naochannels can serve as nanolocalized sources of high THz emf fields exerting accelerating force on electrons of its associated dipole. In LENR, one of the functions that SPP perform is to transfer the energy carried by heat (IR) photons and inject that heat energy into the dipoles vibrations that form the matter based component of the SPP. There exists a energy concentration mechanism that feeds power into energetic electrons when these electrons are accelerated by the linear momentum contained in the IR photons that comprise the SPP. A SPP that dies quickly, produces more EMF force than one that exists for a long time and then dies slowly. There is an analogy to the dynamics of sparks. This SPP behavior seems to correspond to the proportional amplification of instantaneous power produced by a very short lived spark. A spark that dies off quickly must shed all its power in a very short time frame. This lends itself to intense power amplification. The shorter lived the spark, the higher the instantaneous power that the spark produces when it dies. The following seems to be the relationship involves with this SPP ultra short collapse mechanism. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulsed_power EMF power is proportional for any given SPP power level to nanoplasmonic confinement. Nanoplasmonic confinement is related to the time that the SPP exists. A short lived SPP has a large and relatively leak proof nanoplasmonic confinement. Like a wakefield accelerator, a rapidly collapsing SPP will push electrons at high force levels proportional to its rate of its collapse. The linear momentum of the SPP is transferred to its associated electron with a great force giving the electron a high level gain of instantaneous power. A very small nanoparticle will produce a very thin contact plasma channel when it touches another nanoparticle during nanoparticles arrogation. This thin nanochannel results in higher and tighter nanoplasmonic confinement and a shorter SPP lifetime. When two nanoparticles come together, the size of their mutual point of contact defines their EMF instantaneous power amplification factor. Like nanowire, the EMF force produced by the SPP is inversely proportional to the cube of the diameter of its connective plasma channel. Specifically, a very thin sub-nanometer sized plasma channel means a huge EMF power amplification factor. A small nanoparticle will produce a smaller point of contact and a proportionally larger EMF power application factor. In this way, the energy in the heat photons applied to the system is transferred to the dipoles as a huge increase in electron power, specially, heavy high frequency electrons. Now this heavy electron has the ability to pair up with a EMF photon of even a higher frequency when there energy levels are equal. In a short time, the SPP system will gradually climb an acceding frequency ladder to EMF levels in the extreme ultra violet (XUV) range.
