The optical second harmonic generation (SHG) intensity demonstrated clear oscillations during Ag thin film growth on an Si(111)7x7 surface at room temperature. The first intensity peak appeared at two monolayer (ML) for 1.20, 1.30, and 1.40 eV pump photon energies, and the second peak shifted to a lower coverage side with increases in the excitation photon energy. The SHG spectra and atomic force microscope images indicated that the first peak was due to local field enhancement by the plasmon confined in isolated Ag islands. The second peak was caused by resonance with the quantized electronic states confined in the flat Ag thin film.
