Photoluminescence modulation of ZnO via coupling with the surface plasmon resonance of gold nanoparticles

Dongyan Zhang, Hiroki Ushita, and Pangpang Wang et al.

In this letter, we study how coupling between AuNPs and ZnO thin films affects their emission properties. The emission intensity of ZnO thin films changes when Al2O3 spacer layer of different thickness is included in ZnO/Au films, consistent with theoretical predictions. The emission properties ar ...
