摘要

Abstract

We report long-lived

highly spatially localized plasmon states on the surface of nanoporous gold nanoparticles—nanosponges—with high excitation efficiency. It is well known that disorder on the nanometer scale

particularly in two-dimensional systems

can lead to plasmon localization and large field enhancements

which can

in turn

be used to enhance nonlinear optical effects and to study and exploit quantum optical processes. Here

we introduce promising

three-dimensional model systems for light capture and plasmon localization as gold nanosponges that are formed by the dewetting of gold/silver bilayers and dealloying. We study light-induced electron emission from single nanosponges

a nonlinear process with exponents of

≈5...7

using ultrashort laser pulse excitation to achieve femtosecond time resolution. The long-lived electron emission process proves

in combination with optical extinction measurements and finite-difference time-domain calculations

the existence of localized modes with lifetimes of more than 20 fs. These electrons couple efficiently to the dipole antenna mode of each individual nanosponge

which in turn couples to the far-field. Thus

individual gold nanosponges are cheap and robust disordered nanoantennas with strong local resonances

and an ensemble of nanosponges constitutes a

meta material with a strong polarization independent

nonlinear response over a wide frequency range.
