Abstract: This study found that plasmonic hotspots (HSs) between silver nanoparticles (NPs) and silver nanowires (NWs) generated two-photon excited emissions, including hyper-Rayleigh, hyper-Raman, and two-photon fluorescence of dye molecules with continuous-wave (CW) near-infrared (NIR) laser excitation. A comparison between experimental results and electromagnetic (EM) calculations revealed that a large EM enhancement factor (FR) at the HS appears in the visible to NIR regions owing to EM coupling between localized plasmons of the NP and surface plasmons of the NW. This ultrabroad resonance of the coupled plasmons enables the observation of two-photon-excited emissions with CW laser excitation. A comparison of the dependence of the NP diameter, NW diameter, and gap distance on two-photon-excited emissions further demonstrated that the large HS-by-HS variations in the emission intensities were mainly induced by the sensitivity of FR to the gap distance at the HSs. We also experimentally and theoretically investigated the propagation of two-photon-excited emission light to a neighboring NP on the NW via surface plasmons.

We investigated the spectral properties of electromagnetic (EM) enhancement of one-dimensional hotspots generated between silver nanowire (NW) dimers. Phase analysis of the enhanced EM near fields along the 1D HSs revealed that the dipole-quadrupole coupled plasmon, which is a subradiant mode, mainly generates EM enhancement for dimers with NW diameters larger than 80 nm.

Hot-Band Absorption Can Mimic Entangled Two-Photon Absorption [52.77024349608834]
We investigated the fluorescence signals from Rhodamine 6G and LDS798 excited with a CW laser or an entangled photon pair source at 1060 nm. We observed a signal that originates from hot-band absorption (HBA), which is one-photon absorption from thermally-populated vibrational levels of the ground electronic state. For the typical conditions under which E2PEF measurements are performed, contributions from the HBA process could lead to a several orders-of-magnitude overestimate of the quantum advantage for excitation efficiency.
