Geometrical Effects on Electromagnetic Enhancement to SERS from Metal Nanoparticle Dimer Arrays
Much recent effort has been devoted to the study of the optical properties of metal nanoparticle substrates. In such finely ordered structures, surface plasmons can be induced by incident light. These collective excitations of the electrons in the nanoparticle create localized areas of high electrom...
