In this work, we probed the possibility of observing strong plasmon–exciton interactions in hollow gold nanoprism–J-aggregate nanocomposites. Several different hollow gold nanoprisms (HGNs) with different aspect ratios were synthesized. This allowed us to systematically tune the LSPR energies through the exciton energy of the PIC–J-aggregate, which in turn allowed us to have direct determination of the coupling strength of HGN–J-aggregate composites. Hybrid nanosystems were prepared by adsorbing and assembling 1,1′-diethyl-2,2′-cyanine (pseudoisocyanine or PIC) iodide onto the surface of hollow gold nanoprisms. Plasmon–exciton interactions were studied using extinction spectroscopy. The experimental results were analysed, and complemented by the results obtained from numerical simulations. Our results reveal that the HGN–PIC–J-aggregate hybrid nanosystem shows coherent coupling between the localized surface plasmons of the HGN and excitons of the PIC–J-aggregate, as obvious from the observation of a clear transparency dip and the formation of two new hybrid plexcitonic modes in the plexcitonic spectra. Anti-crossing behaviour of the plexcitonic modes, together with large Rabi splitting and coupling constant, asserts strong coupling between the plasmon and the exciton, overwhelming the decoherence effects, in our hybrid nanosystem. Analysis of the calculated near-field distribution establishes that the plasmon-hybridization mediated large electric-field enhancement holds the key to the strong coupling.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
