Enhancement of signal to noise ratio via gain and improved spectral selectivity are two areas that of are interest to the US Air Force for a myriad of applications including imaging, detection, and information processing, to name a few. Plasmonics has emerged as a promising solution that is both viable and offers the desired characteristics needed in these systems. Further, plasmonic devices and applications can be tailored to wavelength of interest with the correct choice of materials. This is the crux of this chapter which discusses the emerging materials in this field and their advantages and drawbacks when compared to traditional plasmonic materials, i.e., noble metals. The chapter concludes with a future outlook and research directions for this work with possible applications that will benefit from this research.
