    Area of Science:

    • Nonlinear Optics
    • Plasmonics
    • Surface Science

    Background:

    • Optical third-harmonic generation (THG) is a fundamental nonlinear optical process.
    • Surface plasmon excitation offers a route to enhance nonlinear optical phenomena.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the enhancement of THG via surface plasmon excitation.
    • To compare THG with second-harmonic generation (SHG) under plasmonic enhancement.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing an attenuated-total-internal-reflection (ATR) geometry.
    • Employing thin silver films to support surface plasmons.
    • Analyzing THG signal dependence on incident laser intensity.

    Main Results:

    • Achieved a 10^3 signal enhancement of THG.
    • Demonstrated plasmonic enhancement of THG in silver films.
    • Observed THG overtaking SHG at intensities > 6 x 10^11 W/cm^2.

    Conclusions:

    • Surface plasmon excitation provides significant enhancement for THG.
    • Plasmonically enhanced THG can dominate over SHG at high laser intensities.
    • ATR geometry is effective for studying surface-plasmon-enhanced nonlinear optics.
