Noble-metal plasmonic nanostructures have attracted much attention because they can support deep-subwavelength optical resonances, yet their performance tends to be limited by high Ohmic absorption losses. In comparison, high-index dielectric materials can support low-loss optical resonances but do not tend to yield the same subwavelength optical confinement. Here, we combine these two approaches and examine the dielectric-plasmonic resonances in dielectric/metal core/shell nanowires. Si nanowires were grown epitaxially from (111) substrates, and direct deposition of Au on these structures by physical vapor deposition yielded nonconformal Au islands. However, by introduction of a molecular adhesion layer prior to deposition, cylindrical Si/Au core/shell nanostructures with conformal metal shells were successfully fabricated. Examining these structures as optical cavities using both optical simulations and experimental extinction measurements, we found that the structures support Mie resonances with quality factors enhanced up to ∼30 times compared with pure dielectric structures and plasmon resonances with optical confinement enhanced up to ∼5 times compared with pure metallic structures. Interestingly, extinction spectra of both Mie and plasmon resonances yield Fano line shapes, whose manifestation can be attributed to the combination of high quality factor resonances, Mie-plasmon coupling, and phase delay of the background optical field. This work demonstrates a bottom-up synthetic method for the production of freestanding, cylindrically symmetric semiconductor/metal core/shell nanowires that enables the efficient trapping of light on deep-subwavelength length scales for varied applications in photonics and optoelectronics. |
