Enhanced Second Harmonic Generation by Mode Matching in Gain-assisted Double-plasmonic Resonance Nanostructure.

ABSTRACT: We theoretically study the gain-assisted double plasmonic resonances to enhance second harmonic generation (SHG) in a centrosymmetric multilayered silver-dielectric-gold-dielectric (SDGD) nanostructure. Introducing gain media into the dielectric layers can not only compensate the dissipation and lead to giant amplification of surface plasmons (SPs), but also excite local quadrupolar plasmon which can boost SHG by mode matching. Specifically, as the quadrupolar mode dominates SHG in our nanostructure, under the mode matching condition, the intensity of second harmonic near-field can be enhanced by 4.43?×?102 and 1.21?×?105 times when the super-resonance is matched only at the second harmonic (SH) frequency or fundamental frequency, respectively. Moreover, the intensity of SHG near-field is enhanced by as high as 6.55?×?107 times when the nanostructure is tuned to double super-resonances at both fundamental and SH frequencies. The findings in this work have potential applications in the design of nanosensors and nanolasers.

Project description:Colloidal metal nanocrystals (NCs) show great potential in plasmon-enhanced spectroscopy owing to their attractive and structure-depended plasmonic properties. Herein, unique Au rod-cup NCs, where Au nanocups are embedded on the one or two ends of Au nanorods (NRs), are successfully prepared for the first time via a controllable wet-chemistry strategy. The Au rod-cup NCs possess multiple plasmon modes including transverse and longitudinal electric dipole (TED and LED), magnetic dipole (MD), and toroidal dipole (TD) modulated LED resonances, producing large extinction cross-section and huge near-field enhancements for plasmon-enhanced spectroscopy. Particularly, Au rod-cup NCs with two embedded cups show excellent surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) performance than Au NRs (75.6-fold enhancement excited at 633 nm) on detecting crystal violet owing to the strong electromagnetic hotspots synergistically induced by MD, LED, and TED-based plasmon coupling between Au cup and rod. Moreover, the strong TD-modulated dipole-dipole double-resonance and MD modes in Au rod-cup NCs bring a 37.3-fold enhancement of second-harmonic generation intensity compared with bare Au NRs, because they can efficiently harvest photoenergy at fundamental frequency and generate large near-field enhancements at second-harmonic wavelength. These findings provide a strategy for designing optical nanoantennas for plasmon-enhanced applications based on multiple plasmon modes.Electronic supplementary materialSupplementary material (SEM image of Au rod-one-cup NCs; TEM image of Au/PbS hybrids; SEM image of Au rod-two-cup NCs; low-amplification SEM image of Au rod-two-cup NCs; experimental extinction and calculated electric field distributions of Au NR excited at different wavelengths; calculated absorption and scattering spectra of Au rod-one-cup NCs; schematic illustration of the cut plane and the corresponding magnetic field distribution under L3 excitation; Raman spectra of CV (10-6 M) adsorbed on Au rod-cup NCs with different cup sizes; calculated magnetic field distribution of Au rodcup NCs excited at 532 and 633 nm; calculated electric field distributions of Au rod-one-cup NC excited at 600 nm along TE and LE; the models of Au rod-cup NCs used in the simulations) is available in the online version of this article at 10.1007/s12274-022-4562-5.
