Second-harmonic generation by a graphene nanoparticle

Considerably Enhanced Second-Harmonic Generation in Resonant U-Shaped Nano-Structures

In this paper, we perform a detailed study of the spectral response of the gold U-shaped nano-structures for different geometrical parameters and polarizations in order to obtain significant localization factor in the wavelength 1.55 μm. The obtained near-field distribution of electric fields reveals that resonances in these nano-structures correspond to the even and odd plasmonic modes dependi...

Probing of valley polarization in graphene via optical second-harmonic generation

Second Harmonic Generation Diagnostic of Layer by Layer Deposition from Disperse Red 1–Functionalized Maleic Anhydride Copolymer

Layer-by-layer (LBL) electrostatic assembly of poly-electrolytes is proving to be an increasingly rich and versatile technique for the formation of multilayered thin films with a wide range of electrical, magnetic, and optical properties. In the present work we synthesized a new nonlinear optical (NLO) maleic acid copolymer containing Disperse Red 1 moieties, built-up multilayer assemblies by a...

Second-harmonic generation in subwavelength graphene waveguides

We suggest a novel approach for generating the second-harmonic radiation in subwavelength graphene waveguides. We demonstrate that the quadratic phase matching between plasmonic guided modes of different symmetries can be achieved in a planar double-layer graphene structure when conductivity of one of the layers becomes spatially modulated. We predict theoretically that, owing to graphene nonlo...

GasniGraphene-manganase oxide nanocomposite as a hydrogen peroxidase sensor

A feasible and fast method to fabricate hydrogen peroxide sensor was investigated by graphene-manganase nanocomposite carbone paste electrode. In the present work, in first step, the graphene was synthesized by chemical method and in second step, manganese oxide nanoparticle was doped on graphene. graphene-manganase nanocomposite was characterized by FTIR and SEM. The nanocomposite shows a high...
