| الوصف: | With the help of a theoretical model and finite-difference-time-domain simulations based on the hydrodynamic-Maxwell model, we examine the effect of difference frequency generation in an array of L-shaped metal nano-particles characterized by intrinsic plasmonic nonlinearity. The outcomes of the calculations reveal the spectral interplay of the gain and loss in the vicinity of the fundamental frequency of the localized surface-plasmon resonances. Subsequently, we identify different array depths and pumping regimes facilitating parametric amplification and parametric down-conversion. Our results suggest that the parametric amplification regime becomes feasible on a scale of hundreds of nanometers and parametric downconversion on the scale of tens of nanometers, opening up new exciting opportunities for developing building blocks of photonic metasurfaces.
