Suspended gold nanoparticles have been synthesized via electrochemical method.Fluorescence excitation and emission spectra were obtained using a spectrofluorophotometer.With varying the excitation wavelength,an emission peak fixed at 485 nm has always been observed.We believe that this peak is attributed to the surface plasmon resonance.When the detection wavelength was fixed at 485 nm (0.619×10 15 Hz),a double frequency exciting peak at 242 nm(2×0.619×10 15 Hz), a 3/2 fraction frequency exciting peak at 330 nm (about 3/2×0.619×10 15 Hz)and a 3/4 fraction frequency exciting peak at 640 nm(3/4×0.619×10 15 Hz)display.The nonlinear exciting peak at 640 nm corresponds to the two-photon absorption.Therefore,as the excitation wavelength is at 320 and 640 nm respectively,single-photon and two-photon absorption induced surface plasmon resonance emission peaks were observed. These nonlinear surface plasmon resonance emission characters of Au colloidal nanoparticles make it possible to enhance the sensitivity of conventional surface plasmon resonance device.
