Evidence for a Local Field Effect in Surface Plasmon-Enhanced Sum Frequency Generation Vibrational Spectra

Abstract: Surface plasmon-enhanced vibrational spectroscopy has been demonstrated to be an important highly sensitive diagnostic technique, but its enhanced mechanism is yet to be explored. In this study, we couple femtosecond sum frequency generation vibrational spectroscopy (SFG-VS) with surface plasmon generated by the excitation of localized gold nanorods/ nanoparticles and investigate the plasmonically enhanced factors (EFs) of SFG signals from poly(methyl methacrylate) films. Through monitoring the SFG intensity o… Show more

“…Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is reported to play a significant role in SFG signal enhancement. ,,, Recently, Tan et al provided evidence that the SFG enhancement factor is proportional to the enhanced factors of the sum and visible electromagnetic fields due to the coupling of the localized surface plasmon generated by the excitation of the gold nanorods/nanoparticles with the sum and visible beams . The remaining enhancement factors of 8.1 and 11.5 for the ss and as modes in our study most likely result from the SPR contribution.…”

“…Distinct influencing factors, especially the SPR effect and the interplay between F ijk and χ ijk terms, should be carefully considered when investigating the SFG signal enhancement. It is worth mentioning that some particular molecular groups polarized by Au surface plasmon (for example, phenyl and pyridine) and a χ (3) term (geometrically thick ones) might contribute to the observed SFG enhancements. ,,, These possible influencing factors are beyond the scope of this study; further theoretical and experimental studies are necessary.…”
