We investigate the plasmonic properties of a symmetric silver sphere septamer and show
that the extinction spectrum exhibits a narrow Fano resonance. Using the plasmon …

The fitting of metal optical properties is a topic that has applications in advanced simulations

The purpose of this study is to get more efficient gold nanoparticles, for necrosis of cancer
cells, in photothermal therapy. Therefore a numerical maximization of the absorption …

Some inputs of computational models are commonly retrieved from external sources
(handbooks, articles, dedicated measurements), and therefore are subject to uncertainties …

Photographs of the Lycurgus Cup with a source light inside and outside exhibit purple and
green colors, respectively (dichroism). A model relying on the scattering of light to colors in …

The inverse problem for thin film properties is a challenge for nanotechnology engineering.
We propose the application of a simple and intuitive numerical scheme: a basic particle …

An improved adaptive remeshing process that allows the accurate control of the numerical
solution of a partial differential 3D vectorial equation is introduced. It is applied to compute …

In this contribution, we propose a computational tool for the synthesis of metallic nanowires
with optimized optical properties, eg maximal scattering cross-section at a given wavelength …

CV Raman and KS Krishnan were the first researchers to describe, explain, and report (in
1928) experimental observations of the Raman effect. 1–4 But the first theoretical results that …
