ABSTRACT

We report the observation of hotspot-induced emitters and photoluminescence enhancement of up to 42-fold from DNA origami-assisted plasmonic dimer nanoantennas upon excess polarized laser illumination. The presence of DNA and laser polarization alignment along the dimer axis are critical for the generation of bright emitters responsible for the observed PL increase. The emission spectrum reveals characteristic Raman peaks of amorphous carbon, suggesting the formation of carbon-based emitters in the nanoantenna due to the plasmonic hotspots at the longitudinal antenna resonance.

ABSTRACT

Optical quantum emitters near nanostructures have access to additional relaxation channels and thus exhibit structure-dependent emission properties, including quantum yield and emission directionality. A well-engineered quantum emitter-plasmonic nanostructure hybrid can be considered as an optical meta-emitter consisting of a transmitting nanoantenna driven by an optical-frequency generator. In this work, the DNA origami fabrication method is used to construct ultracompact unidirectional meta-emitters composed of a plasmonic trimer nanoantenna driven by a single dye molecule. The origami is designed to bring the dye to the gap to simultaneously excite the electric and magnetic dipole modes of the trimer nanoantenna. The interference of these modes fulfills the Kerker condition at the fluorophore's emission band, enabling unidirectional emission. We report unidirectional emission from a single molecule with a front-to-back ratio of up to 10.7 dB accompanied by a maximum emission enhancement of 23-fold.
