Abstract: | The third-order nonlinear optical properties of gold nanoshells in aqueous solution have been investigated by using open- and closed-aperture Z-scan methods. The real and imaginary third-order nonlinear susceptibilities are obtained to be about -1.1422×10-13 and -2.4302×10-14 esu, respectively. We further have investigated the electric field enhancement for gold nanoshells in aqueous solution by means of a finite-element method and ascribed the small third-order nonlinear susceptibility to the smaller volume fraction and local field factor.
