as a low-loss nanoantenna. [1,2] Differently from plasmonic nanoantennas, they exhibit magnetic-type resonances as well as electric-type ones. Existence of magnetic and electric multipole resonances provides a large degree of freedom for tailoring light-matter interactions. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9] Up to now, the most studied dielectric material for a nanoantenna is Si because of the high refractive index (n > 3.5) in the whole visible to near IR (NIR) range and the low extinction coefficient in the red to NIR range (Figure 1). [10,11] However, the extinction coefficient of Si increases at shorter wavelength, and below ≈600 nm, the quality factor (Q-factor) of the resonance degrades and the albedo, that is the ratio of scattering to extinction efficiencies, decreases. This limits the performance of a nanoantenna in the short wavelength range. An alternative material of a nanoantenna operating in a short wavelength range is GaP. It has a moderately high refractive index (n > 3) and a small extinction coefficient at >470 nm (Figure 1a) because of the much larger indirect band gap 2.26 eV (≈550 nm) [12][13][14][15][16][17][18] than that of Si (1.12 eV). For example, the extinction coefficient of GaP at 514 nm is 0.004, which is an order of magnitude smaller than that of Si (0.06). However, despite the expected high performance, research on GaP nanoantennas is very scarce. [13,16,19] For example, even the highest symmetry nanoantenna, i.e., a spherical GaP nanoparticle, has not been developed and the antenna performance has not been studied.In this work, we develop colloidal solution of spherical GaP NP nanoantennas operating below 600 nm. We produce spherical GaP NPs by the combination of mechanical milling and a pulsed laser melting in solution process. In general, the Q-factor of Mie resonances of a spherical NP nanoantenna is higher than that of irregular-shape NP nanoantennas. We first study the effect of the shape on the Mie resonances by single particle scattering spectroscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) in a scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM). We then discuss scattering spectra of single GaP NPs with different sizes and demonstrate the existence of distinctive Mie resonances below 600 nm when the diameter is above ≈200 nm. Finally, we show Purcell enhancement of fluorescence of dye molecules by a GaP nanoantenna.
