Account for the nonlocal effect in light scattering by plasmonic nanoparticles in the hybrid scheme of the discrete sources method

Resumo

A three dimensional problem of plane wave diffraction on a plasmonic nanoparticle is considered, with account for the nonlocal effect. A solution is constructed on the basis of a modified computational scheme of the discrete sources method. A numerical study of the nonlocal effect influence on the scattering properties of spherical nanoparticles upon their deformation is conducted.
