Abstract
Using the finite-element method, the surface plasmon effects in a three-dimensional silver-shell nanospherical pair with five different dielectric holes (DHs) that interact with a transverse magnetic mode incident plane wave are investigated. The proposed structure exhibits a red-shifted localized surface plasmon that can be tuned over an extended wavelength range by varying the dielectric constant and the radii in DHs. The increase in the near-field intensity is attributed to a larger effective size of DH that is filled with a higher refractive index medium. The predictive character of these calculations allows one to tailor the shape of the nanoparticle to achieve excitation spectra on demand with a controlled field enhancement.
