Quadratic Electro-Optic Effect in Metal Nanoparticles in a Transparent Dielectric Medium
The quadratic electro-optic effect/Kerr coefficients were measured for the first time for metal nanoparticles. In particular, gold nanoparticles in glass were studied. Measurements were made using the field-induced birefringence method at a wavelength near the onset of the surface plasmon resonance....
