Single particle plasmon spectroscopy of silver nanowires and gold nanorods.

چکیده
The excitation of surface plasmons in individual silver nanowires and gold nanorods is investigated by means of high-resolution electron energy loss spectroscopy in a transmission electron microscope. The transverse and longitudinal modes of these nanostructures are resolved, and the size variation of the plasmon peaks is studied. The effect of electromagnetic coupling between closely spaced nanoparticles is also observed. Finally, the relation between energy-loss measurements and optical spectroscopy of nanoparticle plasmon modes is discussed.

Mapping the polarization pattern of plasmon modes reveals nanoparticle symmetry.
We study the wavelength and polarization dependent plasmon resonances of single silver and gold nanorods, triangles, cubes, and dimers with a novel single particle spectroscopy method (RotPOL). In RotPOL, a rotating wedge-shaped polarizer encodes the full polarization information of each particle within one image. This reveals the symmetry of the particles and their plasmon modes, allows analyz...

متن کاملProbing silver deposition on single gold nanorods by their acoustic vibrations.
Acoustic vibrations of single gold nanorods coated with silver were investigated. We used single-particle pump-probe spectroscopy to monitor the silver deposition through the particle vibrations. Two vibration modes, the breathing mode and extensional mode, are observed, and the vibrational frequencies are measured as functions of the amount of silver deposited on single gold nanorods. The brea...
متن کاملMultishell Au/Ag/SiO2 nanorods with tunable optical properties as single particle orientation and rotational tracking probes.
Three-layer core-shell plasmonic nanorods (Au/Ag/SiO2-NRs), consisting of a gold nanorod core, a thin silver shell, and a thin silica layer, were synthesized and used as optical imaging probes under a differential interference contrast microscope for single particle orientation and rotational tracking. The localized surface plasmon resonance modes were enhanced upon the addition of the silver s...
متن کاملInfrared spectroscopic studies of the metallic behaviour of single nanorods
Using infrared (IR) spectroscopic microscopy we studied resonant light scattering from gold nanorods prepared by electron beam lithography (EBL) as well as from cylindrical gold nanowires prepared by the template method. Rectangular nanorods with diameter in the 100 nm range act as resonant antennae showing significant antenna-like plasmon resonances similar to those of cylindrical nanowires wi...
