Effect of Spatial Dispersion on Plasmon Resonance in Silver Nanoparticles

详细

Using the modified discrete sources method, the problem of calculating plasmon spectra of the characteristic energy loss of electrons during the interaction with silver nanoparticles from 2 to 8 nm in size is solved. The calculated spectra are compared with the experimental data confirming the significant spatial dispersion effect. The importance of the consideration of this factor when analyzing the properties of plasmonic nanoparticles for applications in biosensorics and biomedicine is discussed.
