We report on halide-ion-assisted chemical effect in surface-enhanced hyper-Raman scattering of crystal violet (CV) adsorbed on single silver aggregate. A dramatic increase in spectral intensity was observed in the presence of halide ions as compared to their absence. By measuring the hyper-Rayleigh scattering from single aggregate treated with and without halide ions, we established that it was chemical effect, rather than electromagnetic effect that was responsible for this strong enhancement. We attribute the enhancement to a charge transfer mechanism between CV and metal surface mediated by the halide ions similar to surface-enhanced Raman scattering.
