Abstract
Nanogaps are one of the most useful systems in nanooptics. The gap modes in a film coupled dielectric nanoparticle dimer system are influenced by both of the film and the electric and magnetic modes of the particles. In this work, strong confinement of gap modes of dielectric (Si) nanoparticle dimer on Au/Si film is investigated. The results show an abnormal electric field enhancement obtained between Si nanoparticle dimer on metal film, which is attributed to film coupled electric and magnetic dipole modes in dielectric nanoparticle dimer. The results are further analyzed with mode hybridization theory. Furthermore, the surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) is performed to demonstrate these theoretical analyses. The film induced electromagnetic field redistribution in dielectric nanoparticle dimer not only extend the knowledge of dielectric gap modes but also has tremendous applications, e.g. light manipulating in subwavelength, light harvest, surface enhanced spectrum, etc.
