- Abstract: Focusing electromagnetic field to enhance the interaction with matter has
been promoting researches and applications of nano electronics and photonics.
Usually, the evanescent-wave coupling is adopted in various nano structures and
materials to confine the electromagnetic field into a subwavelength space.
Here, based on the direct coupling with confined electron oscillations in a
nanowire, we demonstrate an extreme localization of microwave field down to
10$^{-6}\lambda$. A hybrid nanowire-bowtie antenna is further designed to focus
the free-space microwave to this deep-subwavelength space. Detected by the
nitrogen vacancy center in diamond, the field intensity and microwave-spin
interaction strength are enhanced by 2.0$\times$10$^{8}$ and
1.4$\times$10$^{4}$ times, respectively. Such an extreme concentration of
microwave field will further promote integrated quantum information processing,
sensing and microwave photonics in a nanoscale system.
