We theoretically study the gain-assisted double plasmonic resonances to enhance second harmonic generation (SHG) in a centrosymmetric multilayered silver-dielectric-gold-dielectric (SDGD) nanostructure. Introducing gain media into the dielectric layers can not only compensate the dissipation and lead to giant amplification of surface plasmons (SPs), but also excite local quadrupolar plasmon which can boost SHG by mode matching. Specifically, as the quadrupolar mode dominates SHG in our nanostructure, under the mode matching condition, the intensity of second harmonic nearfield can be enhanced by 4.43 x 10(2) and 1.21 x 10(5) times when the super-resonance is matched only at the second harmonic (SH) frequency or fundamental frequency, respectively. Moreover, the intensity of SHG near-field is enhanced by as high as 6.55 x 10(7) times when the nanostructure is tuned to double super-resonances at both fundamental and SH frequencies. The findings in this work have potential applications in the design of nanosensors and nanolasers.
