Influencing the ultrafast plasmon damping time using Fano resonances for nonlinear plasmonics

We explore the possibility of strongly influencing the plasmon damping time in nanostructures for efficient second harmonic generation, by taking advantage of the tunability of the narrow linewidth feature in the extinction cross-section exhibited by plasmonic nanostructures under Fano resonance.
