Abstract

A closed packed hexagonal structure of nickel nanoparticles was fabricated by deposition of thin nickel films on self-assembled polystyrene micron spheres, which were made of nanospherical lithography in conjunction with left-off the micro spheres. The optical second harmonic generation from these periodically arrayed nickel nanoparticles reveals intensity with a value much larger than that generated from a uniform nickel-film of the same thickness. Quasi phase matching contributed from Bragg wave vectors of the periodic arrayed nickel nanoparticles can satisfactorily express this enhancement.
