The hotspots, which are typically found in nanogaps between metal structures, are critical for the enhancement of the electromagnetic field. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), a technique known for its exceptional sensitivity and…
Nanoscale gaps between adjacent metallic nanostructures give rise to extraordinarily large field enhancements, known as "hot spots", upon illumination. Incident light with the electric field polarized across the gap (along the interparticle…
We report that rhomb-shaped metal nanoantenna arrays support multiple plasmonic resonances, making them favorable bio-sensing substrates. Besides the two localized plasmonic dipole modes associated with the two principle axes of the rhombi,…
Structured metallic tips are increasingly important for optical spectroscopies such as tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS), with plasmonic resonances frequently cited as a mechanism for electric field enhancement. We probe the local…
We investigate theoretically the optical properties associated to plasmon resonances of metal nanowires with cross section given by low-order Chebyshev nanoparticles (like rounded-tip nanostars or nanoflowers). The impact of the nanoflower…
Trisoctahedral (TOH) shaped Au nanocrystals (NCs) have emerged as a new class of metal nanoparticles (MNP) due to its superior catalystic and SERS activities caused by the presence of high density atomic steps and dangling bonds on their…
Extreme field localization and giant field enhancement are often achieved by using plasmonic nanostructures and metamaterials such as strongly coupled silver nanoparticles.Dielectric particles and structures can focus light beyond the…
Porous nanosponges, percolated with a three-dimensional network of 10-nm sized ligaments, recently emerged as promising substrates for plasmon-enhanced spectroscopy and (photo-)catalysis. Experimental and theoretical work suggests surface…

In this contribution experimental evidence of plasmonic edge modes and breathing acoustic modes in gold nanostars (AuNS) is reported. AuNS are synthesized in a surfactant-free, one-step wet-chemistry method. Optical extinction measurements…
In electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) of individual silver nanoparticles encapsulated in silicon nitride, we observe besides the usual dipole resonance an additional surface plasmon (SP) resonance corresponding to higher angular…
The generation of the localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) on the surface of plasmonic structures in the nanoscale has paved the way for advanced biosensing, surpassing the conventional detection limits. The electric field enhancement…
We numerically study the tuning of the radiative heat transfer between a spherical InSb nanoparticle in the vicinity of a flat SiC surface assisted by a static magnetic field. By changing the value of the applied magnetic field, the…
Cathodoluminescence spectroscopy has been performed on silver nanoparticles in a scanning electron microscopy setup. Peaks appearing in the visible range for particles fabricated on silicon substrate are shown to arrive from excitation of…
Localized surface plasmon resonances have recently attracted considerable attention due to their ability to dramatically enhance near-field optical intensities and boost nanoscale light-matter interactions. Here we demonstrate unambiguously…
We examine here the anomalous optical response of a nanosphere composed of two conjoined hemispheres of different materials, one of them being plasmonic. At the internal resonance, we show how the light interaction becomes dramatically…
Sharp metal corners and tips support plasmons localized on the scale of the curvature radius -- superlocalized plasmons. We analyze plasmonic properties of nanoparticles with small and sharp corner- and tip-shaped surface perturbations in…
