Abstract :
Photoluminance of gold nanorods has been studied via two-photon excitation using cylindrical vector beams (CVBs). Based on our experiment results, CVBs cannot only be used for fast determining the three-dimensional orientation of gold nanorods, but also facilitate omnidirectional polarisation recording.
