Plasmonic Hot Carriers-Controlled Second Harmonic Generation in WSe₂ Bilayers

Modulating second harmonic generation (SHG) by a static electric field through either electric-field-induced SHG or charge-induced SHG has been well documented. Nonetheless, it is essential to develop the ability to dynamically control and manipulate the nonlinear properties, preferably at high speed. Plasmonic hot carriers can be resonantly excited in metal nanoparticles and then injected into semiconductors within 10–100 fs, where they...
