Abstract
We have demonstrated that periodical arrays of silver nanoparticles can enhance the light emission from a plastic scintillator layer on the surface of a silicon substrate. The enhancement is attributed to surface lattice resonances with a photonic-plasmonic nature. Although the enhancement exhibits directional characteristics for individual wavelengths, the wavelength-integrated enhancement shows a monotonous increase with increasing emission angle. As a result, an overall 1.81-fold wavelength- and angle-integrated enhancement has been obtained. This observation is promising for fundamental and applied research into enhanced luminescent material layers on opaque substrates.
