Controlling the synthesis and assembly of silver nanostructures for plasmonic applications

TL;DR: In plasmonics, the metal nanostructures can serve as antennas to convert light into localized electric fields (E-fields) or as waveguides to route light to desired locations with nanometer precision through a strong interaction between incident light and free electrons in the nanostructure.
Journal ArticleDOI
