Abstract

The extinction of white light by dense 2D ensemble of gold nanoparticles with size of 22 nm and interparticle distance of 40 nm has been studied at the simultaneous illumination of nanoparticles by the continuous-wave laser beam in dependence of the detuning of laser frequency from the surface plasmon resonance (SPR). The appreciable red shift, broadening, and increase of intensity of the plasmonic extinction band have been observed at approaching of the laser frequency to SPR. The plasmon band shift and broadening reveal the heating of gold nanoparticles that has an evident resonant character. The strong increase of nanoparticle temperature of 590 K has been observed at moderate laser intensity of 5 × 103 W/cm2 and detuning of 24.6 nm. Such strong heating is probably due to the accumulative effect and the light extinction enhancement by intense local plasmonic field of coupled Au nanoparticles in dense 2D ensemble.
