Nanoparticle plasmonics is a rapidly emerging research field that deals with the fabrication
and optical characterization of noble metal nanoparticles of various size, shape, structure …

Surface plasmons excited by light in metal structures provide a means for manipulating
optical energy at the nanoscale. Plasmons are associated with the collective oscillations of …

We observe from simulations that a doubly resonant structure can exhibit spectral behavior
analogous to electromagnetically induced transparency, as well as superscattering …

Plasmonic dark modes are pure near-field modes that can arise from the plasmon
hybridization in a set of interacting nanoparticles. When compared to bright modes, dark …

We present experimental data on the light scattering properties of linear chains of gold
nanoparticles with up to six nanoparticles and an interparticle spacing of 1 nm. A red shift of …

We present a theory for determining the localized surface plasmon resonance shifts of
arbitrarily shaped metal nanoparticles on a substrate. Using a pseudoparticle concept, an …

We show theoretically that localized surface plasmons can generate optical fields with a
chirality exceeding that of circularly polarized light by a factor of 50. This superchiral optical …

Surface plasmons (SPs) are electromagnetic excitations existing at the interface between a
metal and a dielectric material. Control and manipulation of light based on SPs at the …

Plasmonic oligomer clusters are assemblies of closely packed metallic nanoparticles. They
provide a rich set of spectral features such as Fano lineshapes and a simultaneous tunability …

We review recent progress on the assembly of metal nanocrystals using dithiol and DNA
based bifunctional linkers to create discrete plasmonic superstructures. The structures …
