摘要:

光学纳米天线是研究纳米宇宙中以前无法达到的尺寸的一种新工具。就像它们的射频等效物一样,纳米天线增强了它们的馈电间隙中的光-物质相互作用。小信号的天线增强有望在纳米尺度上的线性和非线性光谱学中开辟一个新的领域。在没有天线的情况下,特别是单个纳米物体的非线性光谱学是非常苛刻的。在这里,我们提出了第一次天线增强超快非线性光学光谱。特别地,我们利用天线来确定由机械呼吸振荡引起的单个金纳米颗粒的非线性瞬态吸收信号。我们增加了一个数量级,这是在良好的协议与我们的分析和数值模型的信号幅度。我们的方法将在纳米物体的线性和非线性光谱学中找到应用,范围从通过非线性张量元素的单个蛋白质结合事件到连续介质力学的极限。

英文摘要:

Optical nanoantennas are a novel tool to investigate previously unattainable dimensions in the nanocosmos. Just like their radio-frequency equivalents, nanoantennas enhance the light-matter interaction in their feed gap. Antenna enhancement of small signals promises to open a new regime in linear and nonlinear spectroscopy on the nanoscale. Without antennas especially the nonlinear spectroscopy of single nanoobjects is very demanding. Here, we present for the first time antenna-enhanced ultrafast nonlinear optical spectroscopy. In particular, we utilize the antenna to determine the nonlinear transient absorption signal of a single gold nanoparticle caused by mechanical breathing oscillations. We increase the signal amplitude by an order of magnitude which is in good agreement with our analytical and numerical models. Our method will find applications in linear and nonlinear spectroscopy of nanoobjects, ranging from single protein binding events via nonlinear tensor elements to the limits of continuum mechanics.
