摘要:

我们采用非线性自相关测量研究等离子体辅助的热载流子动力学产生的光学金天线。我们表明,表面等离子体激元使热载流子的非线性形成,从而提供了一个独特的杠杆,以优化光激发电荷的能量分布和生成效率。载流子弛豫的时间响应可以控制在500~fs ~ 2.5~ps的范围内。通过对动力学的定量分析,我们确定了单个光学天线的非线性吸收截面。因此,这项工作提供了强有力的见解等离子体激元诱导的热载流子产生的理解,特别是在应用程序中的时间响应起着主导作用。

英文摘要:

We employ nonlinear autocorrelation measurements to investigate plasmon-assisted hot carrier dynamics generated in optical gold antennas. We demonstrate that surface plasmons enable a nonlinear formation of hot carriers, providing thus a unique lever to optimize the energy distribution and generation efficiency of the photo-excited charges. The temporal response of the carriers' relaxation can be controlled within a range extending from 500~fs to 2.5~ps. By conducting a quantitative analysis of the dynamics, we determine the nonlinear absorption cross-section of individual optical antennas. As such, this work provides strong insights on the understanding of plasmon-induced hot carrier generation, especially in the view of applications where the time response plays a preponderant role.
