We show strong coupling of a mid-infrared microscale resonator with ultra-localised plasmonic nanocavity modes. This enables new types of mixing between IR absorption and surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), opening up new types of ultrasensitive molecular detection.
Nanoscale localized optical cavities are self-assembled by depositing Au nanoparticles onto few μm metal discs with molecular spacers. Coupling between the microscale resonator and nanocavity in this nanoparticle-on-resonator (NPoR) scheme, reveals extreme near-field enhancements resulting in boosted SERS intensities. We anticipate that such near-field enhancements open new horizons in single-molecule photonic circuits and molecular optomechanics.
