Calculated absorption and scattering properties of gold nanoparticles of different size, and composition: Applications in biological imaging and biomedicine
Article Abstract:
Mie theory and discrete dipole approximation method was used to calculate absorption and scattering efficiencies and optical resonance wavelengths for three commonly used classes of the nanoparticles. The calculated spectra clearly reflected the dependence of nanoparticle optical properties namely the resonance wavelength, the extinction cross-section, and the ratio of scattering to absorption, on the nanoparticle dimensions.

Plasmon coupling in nanorod assemblies: Optical absorption, discrete dipole approximation simulation, and exciton-coupling model
Article Abstract:
A study explores the orientational dependence of plasmon coupling in assemblies of anisotropic plasmonic nanoparticles. Findings demonstrate that the solution assembly of nanorods induced by the addition of sodium citrate results in the blue-shift of the longitudinal nanorods plasmon band, and a red-shift of the transverse plasmon band.
