There have been numerous reports of boosting nonlinear optical phenomena in plasmonic nanostructures through local-field enhancement as well as through intrinsic metal nonlinearities. Here, we study the possibility of plasmonic enhancement of graphene's nonlinear absorption by creating a composite material: gold nanoparticle-decorated graphene dispersed in water. To evaluate the additive effect of combining the two materials on the saturable absorption efficiency we performed a series of f-scan (modified Z-scan) measurements using femtosecond laser pulses in the broad spectral range from 530 to 1600 nm. These studies are supplemented by TEM, UV-vis, ATR and Raman spectroscopy, revealing the mechanisms behind the formation of the composite material.

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.
