In this article, spectroscopic ellipsometry studies of plasmon resonances at metal–dielectric
interfaces of thin films are reviewed. We show how ellipsometry provides valuable non …

Noble metals such as gold and silver are conventionally used as the primary plasmonic
building blocks of optical metamaterials. Making subwavelength-scale structural elements …

The applications of light absorbers concern photodetectors, optical filters, solar applications
or flexible electronics. In this review, we will detail the application of such light absorbers …

Self-organized Ag nanoparticles arrays capped with Au layer are produced by depositing Ag
