contents Resonant coupling between plasmonic nanoantennas and molecular vibrational excitations is employed to amplify the weak overtone transitions that reside in the near-infrared. We explore for the first time the differential extinction of forbidden molecular overtone transitions coupled to the localized surface plasmons. We show that a non-trivial interplay between the molecular absorption enhancement and suppression of plasmonic absorption in a coupled system gives rise to orders of magnitude enhancement of the probe molecule differential extinction. Our results pave a road toward a new class of surface-enhanced near-infrared absorption-based sensors.
