Abstract

We develop a plasmonic nanoparticle-in-groove nanocavity coupled with a few hundred molecules, demonstrating optomechanical transduction of sub-microwatt continuous wave signals from the mid-infrared (32 THz) onto the visible domain at ambient conditions. The dual resonant nanocavity offers an estimated 13 orders of magnitude enhancement in upconversion efficiency per molecule. Our results establish molecular cavity optomechanics as a new paradigm for coherent frequency conversion free of phase matching constraints.
