Abstract

We show enhanced second-harmonic generation (SHG) from a hybrid metal-dielectric nanodimer consisting of an inorganic perovskite nanoparticle of barium titanate (BaTiO3) coupled to a metallic gold (Au) nanoparticle. BaTiO3-Au nanodimers of 100 nm / 80 nm sizes are fabricated by sequential capillarity-assisted particle assembly. The BaTiO3 nanoparticle has a non-centrosymmetric crystalline structure and generates bulk SHG. We use the localized surface plasmon resonance of the gold nanoparticle to enhance the SHG from the BaTiO3 nanoparticle. We experimentally measure the nonlinear signal from assembled nanodimers and demonstrate an up to 15-fold enhancement compared to a single BaTiO3 nanoparticle. We further perform numerical simulations of the linear and SHG spectra of the BaTiO3-Au dimer and show that the gold nanoparticle acts as a nanoantenna at the SHG wavelength.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 4. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 22 June 2020.
All research outputs
#6,861,971
of 22,997,544 outputs
Outputs from Nano Letters
#5,506
of 12,452 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#108,369
of 318,007 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nano Letters
#70
of 172 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,997,544 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 69th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 12,452 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.9. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 55% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 318,007 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 65% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 172 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 58% of its contemporaries.
