Plasmons in assembled metal nanostructures: radiative and nonradiative properties, near-field coupling and its universal scaling behavior

Noble metal nanostructures possess unique properties including large near-field enhancement and strong light scattering and absorption due to their plasmon resonance - the collective coherent oscillation of the metal free electrons in resonance with the electromagnetic field of light. The effect of...
