A Fano resonance is experimentally observed in a single silver nanocube separated from a supporting silver film by a thin aluminum oxide film. The resonance spectrum is modulated by changing the size of the silver nanocube and its distance from the silver film. The system is fabricated by a bottom-up process with an accurately controlled nanogap at the sub-6-nm scale. The simulation result shows that the destructive interference between the dipole mode and the quadrupole mode in this “nanocube on mirror” (NCoM) structure is responsible for the resonance. The spectra red-shifted as the size of the silver nanocube increased and its distance from the silver film decreased. In addition, a refractive index sensitivity of the spectrum of 140 meV/RIU (refractive index unit), with a 2.4 figure of merit, is obtained by changing the dielectric environment around the silver nanocube. This work will enable the development of high-performance tunable optical nanodevices based on NCoM structures. |
