Abstract

We study surface plasmon excitation in pairs of identical Au nanoparticles by optical transmission spectroscopy. The samples produced by electron beam lithography consist of 2D particle arrangements with varying interparticle distance. With decreasing interparticle distance the surface plasmon resonance shifts to longer wavelengths for a polarization direction parallel to the long particle pair axis whereas a blueshift is found for the orthogonal polarization. These experimental findings can be explained by a dipolar interaction mechanism.
