Abstract

Individual collagen fibrils with plasmonic gold nanoparticles were investigated with polarization second harmonic generation (SHG) microscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM) to reveal if SHG would be locally enhanced by the plasmons. Gold nanospheres with a plasmon resonance near the SHG wavelength were investigated. SHG intensity of the fibrils correlated with damage sites as observed by AFM. Localized sample damage of the fibrils likely resulted from thermal damage due to laser heated nanoparticles.
