Area of Science:

  • Nanotechnology
  • Materials Science
  • Plasmonics

Background:

  • Nanoscale morphological control is crucial for designing materials with specific plasmonic properties.
  • One-dimensional (1D) nanostructures, such as nanotubes, offer unique platforms for plasmonic applications.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate the nanoengineering of plasmon resonances in two types of 1D AuAg nanotubes: fully hollow and hybrid structures.
  • To understand the influence of morphology on plasmonic behavior and explore possibilities for tunable plasmonic responses.

Main Methods:

  • Fabrication of hollow and hybrid AuAg nanotubes.
  • Spatially resolved plasmon mapping using electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS).
  • Numerical simulations using the boundary element method (BEM).

Main Results:

  • EELS revealed high-order resonator-like and localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) modes in both nanotube types.
  • Experimental findings were in excellent agreement with BEM simulations.
  • Plasmon hybridization within the nanotubes led to intense plasmon resonances inside the structures.
  • Hybrid AuAg nanotubes exhibited distinct LSPRs from both solid and hollow segments.
  • Plasmon hybridization disrupted the periodicity of high-order modes, causing asymmetrical plasmon distribution.

Conclusions:

  • Hybrid AuAg nanotubes provide a single nanostructure capable of generating a broad range of plasmon resonances.
  • The asymmetry in plasmon distribution can be engineered for applications in coded plasmonic nanotubes.
  • Nanoengineering of nanotube morphology offers a pathway to precisely control plasmonic properties.
