Abstract:
Manipulation of resonant dielectric nanostructures is of paramount importance for next-generation photonic devices. Traditionally, researchers use two-dimensional or phase-change materials for this purpose. However, the former leads to small efficiency, while the latter lacks continuous changes. Here, we provide an alternative approach through laser-induced modification. Specifically, via a laser ablation process we synthesized molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) nanoparticles (NPs), the composition of which we then controlled through laser fragmentation. It causes a transformation of MoS 2 into its oxide MoO 3− x , which, in turn, results in pronounced modification of the optical response, owing to a large difference between their optical constants. In addition, laser-fragmented NPs have a several times larger photothermal response, compared to the original MoS 2 and classical silicon NPs. Thus, our MoS 2 -based laser-tunable NPs open up a new perspective for resonant nanophotonics, in particular, photothermal therapy.
