Absorption and scattering of light by metal-dielectric nanoeggs
Abstract
The optical and plasmonic properties of metal-dielectric nanoeggs were investigated in this study. Frequency dependencies of polarizability, absorption and scattering cross-sections, and radiation efficiency were determined. Expressions describing the size-dependent behavior of surface plasmon resonance frequencies were derived. The causes of blue and red shifts in the maxima of polarizability, absorption, and scattering cross-sections as well as variations in their number and amplitude were identified. Recommendations were proposed regarding the use of materials with maximum radiation efficiency in different spectral ranges.
