Resonant coupling between localized plasmons and anisotropic molecular coatings in ellipsoidal metal nanoparticles

Tobias Ambjornsson, Gautam Mukhopadhyay, S. Peter Apell +1

We present an analytic theory for the optical properties of ellipsoidal plasmonic particles covered by anisotropic molecular layers. The theory is applied to the case of a prolate…
