In this work, we investigate the generation of second harmonic light by gold nanorods and demonstrate that the collected nonlinear intensity depends upon a phase interplay between different modes available in the nanostructure. By recording…
Rigorous electrodynamical simulations based on the nonlinear Drude model are performed to investigate the influence of strong coupling on high harmonic generation by periodic metal gratings. It is shown that a thin dispersive material with…
Understanding how light interacts at the nanoscale with metals, semiconductors, or ordinary dielectrics is pivotal if one is to properly engineer nano-antennas, filters and, more generally, devices that aim to harness the effects of new…
