Spatial Confinement of the Electrical Field Affected by Quantum Effects in Plasmonic Dimer Sandwiching a Single Molecule

The spatial confinement of the tip-induced plasmon is a critical factor to determine the resolution of the tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS) system. Despite the compressed optical field, only 1 nm is obtained by the self-interaction effect of molecule; however, the deeper physical laws underlyi...
