Governed by the lightning rod effect and localized surface plasmon resonances, linear optical properties of metallic nanoantennas have been widely investigated [1]. In our latest work, we have combined a femtosecond erbium fibre laser (774 nm) with a home-built parabolic mirror (NA 0.998) assisted confocal optical microscope [2] to investigate the non-linear optical effects from nano structures of different materials, and geometries. Due to the intensely confined electric field at the tip apex and its centrosymmetry breaking geometry, single gold nano-cone showed dramatic non-linear optical properties, which depend sensitively on the polarization condition. Combined with numerical simulation, we will demonstrate and analyse systematically the non-linear optical imaging of individual gold nano-cones.
