An optical device (2) includes an input optical source that provides and optical signal (8) to the optical device. A surface phonon polariton (SPP) nanostructure (4) receives the optical signal (8) that interacts with the SPP nanostructure (4) to excite a Raman process and produce a Raman light signal. The Raman light signal comprises a broad spectral range from near infrared to far infrared.
