Abstract
A new tactic that using Ag nanorice trimer as surface-enhanced hyper Raman scattering substrate is proposed for realizing maximum signal enhancement. In this paper, we numerically simulate and theoretically analyze the optical properties of the nanorice trimer consisting of two short nanorices and a long nanorice. The Ag nanorice trimer can excite Fano resonance at optical frequencies based on the strong interaction between the bright and the dark mode. The bright mode is attributed to the first longitudinal resonance of the short nanorice pair, while the dark mode originates from the third longitudinal mode resonance of the long nanorice. The electric field distributions demonstrate that the two resonances with the largest field strength correspond to the first-order resonance of the long nanorice and the Fano resonance of the trimer, respectively. Two plasmon resonances with maximum electromagnetic field enhancements and same spatial hot spot regions can match spectrally with the pump and second-order Stokes beams of hyper Raman scattering, respectively, through reasonable design of the trimer structure parameters. The estimated enhancement factor of surface-enhanced hyper Raman scattering can achieve as high as 5.32 × 1013.

Abstract
The development of new structures allows two-photon coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (TPCARS) to be strongly enhanced by multiple surface plasmon resonances (MSPRs). In this paper, plasmonic structure consisting of two Ag nanorods is designed and the enhancement of TPCARS is investigated. By properly selecting designing structure parameters, strong MSPRs peaks at 1020 nm and 505 nm are obtained, which can enhance the TPCARS signal based on the frequency match of the fundamental frequency and frequency doubling. The enhancement factor of TPCARS can reach as high as 3.66 × 1028 with significant electric field enhancements under appropriate selection of system parameters. Furthermore, the two-photon process can be controlled at different optical frequencies by changing the geometric parameters of Ag nanorods. The new scheme advanced in this work can help to achieve single molecule level of CARS, and may have a potential to increase the intensity and resolution of nonlinear optical imaging.

Abstract
The broadband circular polarizer based on the surface plasmon of a metal nanostructure has important practical application due to its adjustability, low cost, and easy integration. In this article, a twisted multilayer double semi-disc structure is designed to allow for a broadband circular polarizer, whose transmission spectra are simulated using the finite element method under left-handed circularly polarized and right-handed circularly polarized extinction. The results show a large extinction ratio up to 900 for properly designed geometry and a broad bandwidth (defined as extinction ratio >10) of 50-160 nm. Additionally, the broadband position, bandwidth, and extinction rate are all sensitive to some geometric parameters, such as rotation angle, disk radius, and more, and the mechanism of this phenomenon is clarified by exploring the plasmon electromagnetic resonance on nanostructures.

Abstract
Because of the unique selection rule, hyper-Raman scattering (HRS) can provide spectral information that linear Raman and infrared spectroscopy cannot obtain. However, the weak signal is the key bottleneck that restricts the application of HRS technique in study of the molecular structure, surface or interface behavior. Here, we theoretically design and investigate a kind of plasmonic substrate consisting of Ag nanorices for enhancing the HRS signal based on the electromagnetic enhancement mechanism. The Ag nanorice can excite multiple resonances at optical and near-infrared frequencies. By properly designing the structure parameters of Ag nanorice, multi- plasmon resonances with large electromagnetic field enhancements can be excited, when the "hot spots" locate on the same spatial positions and the resonance wavelengths match with the pump and the second-order Stokes beams, respectively. Assisted by the field enhancements resulting from the first- and second-longitudinal plasmon resonance of Ag nanorice, the enhancement factor of surface enhanced hyper-Raman scattering can reach as high as 5.08 × 109, meaning 9 orders of magnitude enhancement over the conventional HRS without the plasmonic substrate.

Abstract
We report spectral splitting behaviors based on Fano resonances in a novel simple planar metasurface composed of gold nanobars and nanorings. Multiple plasmonic modes and sharp Fano effects are achieved in a broadband transmittance spectrum by exploiting the rotational symmetry of the metasurface. The transmission properties are effectively modified and tuned by modulating the structural parameters. The highest single side Q-factor and FoM which reaches 196 and 105 are observed at Fano resonances. Our proposed design is relatively simple and can be applied for various applications such as multi-wavelength highly sensitive plasmonic sensors, switching, and slow light devices.

Abstract
Third-harmonic generation with metallic or dielectric nanoparticles often suffer from, respectively, small modal volumes and weak near-field enhancements. This study propose and demonstrate that a metallic/dielectric hybrid nanostructure composed of a silver double rectangular nanoring and a silicon square nanoplate can be used to overcome these obstacles for enhanced third-harmonic generation. It is shown that the nonradiative anapole mode of the Si plate can be used as a localized source to excite the dark subradiant octupole mode of the Ag ring, and the mode hybridization leads to the formation of an antibonding and a bonding subradiant collective mode, thereby forming anticrossing double Fano resonances. With the strong coupling between individual particles and the effectively suppressed radiative losses of the Fano resonances, several strong hot spots are generated around the Ag ring due to the excitation of the octupole mode, and electromagnetic fields within the Si plate are also strongly amplified, making it possible to confine more incident energy inside the dielectric nanoparticle. Calculation results reveal that the confined energy inside the Si plate and the Ag ring for the hybrid structures can be about, respectively, more than three times and four orders stronger than that of the corresponding isolated nanoparticles, which makes the designed hybrid nanostructure a promising platform for enhanced third-harmonic generation.

Abstract
A novel silver hyper ring and its complex nanostructures are designed and its plasmonic properties are investigated numerically. It is found that these hyper ring structures have relative stable optical features. The absorption cross section of the structure changes slightly when the direction and polarization of incident light is adjusting. For the complex structure, the position of each resonance peak does not present obvious change when the relative position of the inner hyper ring and outside larger ring changes. The result of the investigation has great significance for the production of practical nanostructures and the improvement of possible applications.
