Calculations on the Optical Properties of Layered Metal Nanospheres

Description:

In this experiment, the optical properties of several spherical nanoparticles were observed. Particles were modeled using Mie theory, a set of equations that calculate the extinction coefficient of virtually any spherical particle. Initially this theory was used to model solid particles made of noble metals. As time passed, its scope...

Optical Properties of Gold Nanospheres

Description:

The optical properties of spherical gold nanoparticles are calculated using classical electrodynamics. The wavelength corresponding to maximum extinction shifts to longer wavelengths as the size of the nanoparticle is increased. The influence of higher-order multipoles is evident for large nanoparticles, making the spectra more complex. When the shell thickness of...
