Optimal design of a silicon nitride waveguide structure composed of resonant nanoantennas for efficient light coupling with interlayer exciton emitters in a MoSe2–WSe2 heterostructure is proposed. Numerical simulations demonstrate up to eight times coupling efficiency improvement and twelve times Purcell effect enhancement in comparison with a conventional strip waveguide. Achieved results can be beneficial for development of on-chip non-classical light sources.
Here we demonstrate the composition of a 3D porous quartz matrix infiltrated by silver nanoparticles as a possible application for surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) investigations. Various types of infiltration techniques applied for the incorporation of plasmonic Ag nanoparticles inside the pores are considered. We observe an enhancement of the second harmonic generation intensity, two-photon luminescence and nonlinear absorption in the composite metal-dielectric structures in the spectral vicinity of the localized surface plasmon resonance in silver nanoparticles, which confirms the related amplification of the local field effects in these 3D composite structures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
