چکیده

The dispersion relations of the surface plasmon modes of metal nanoparticle chains are measured, and compared with theory. The theoretical model includes the effects of retardation, radiative damping and dynamic depolarization due to the finite size of the nanoparticles. The results reveal that, in addition to one longitudinal and one transverse mode, there is a third mode, which has not been previously reported.

Surface Plasmon Dispersion Relations in Chains of Metallic Nanoparticles: Exact Quasistatic Calculation

We calculate the surface plasmon dispersion relations for a periodic chain of spherical metallic nanoparticles in an isotropic host, including all multipole modes in a generalized tight-binding approach. For sufficiently small particles (kd ≪ 1, where k is the wave vector and d is the interparticle separation), the calculation is exact. The lowest bands differ only slightly from previous point-...

Finding Electrostatics modes in Metal Thin Films by using of Quantum Hydrodynamic Model

In this paper, by using a quantum hydrodynamic plasma model which incorporates the important quantum statistical pressure and electron diffraction force, we present the corrected plasmon dispersion relation for graphene which includes a k quantum term arising from the collective electron density wave interference effects (which  is integer and constant and k is wave vector). The longitudinal ...

Surface-plasmon dispersion relations in chains of metallic nanoparticles: An exact quasistatic calculation

We calculate the surface-plasmon dispersion relations for a periodic chain of spherical metallic nanoparticles in an isotropic host, including all multipole modes, in a generalized tight-binding approach. For sufficiently small particles (kd!1, where k is the wave vector and d is the interparticle separation!, the calculation is exact. The lowest bands differ only slightly from previous point-d...

On the Surface Plasmon Resonance Modes of Metal Nanoparticle Chains and Arrays

A method for estimating the surface plasmon resonance modes of metal nanoparticle chains and arrays within a multilayered medium is proposed. In this fully retarded point-dipole method, an inhomogeneous background is replaced with a homogeneous one, based on an effective refractive index approximation. The proposed method includes the effects of retardation, radiative damping, and dynamic depol...

Full analytical model for obtaining surface plasmon resonance modes of metal nanoparticle structures embedded in layered media.

This work addresses the need for a fully-retarded theoretical model for surface plasmons on metal nanoparticle chains and arrays embedded in a multilayered medium. The proposed method uses dyadic layered medium Green's functions not only to obtain the electric field created by an oscillating electric dipole but also to modify the polarizability of nanoparticles in a multilayered medium appropri...
