Surface Plasmon Spectroscopy of Nanosized Metal Particles

TL;DR: In this paper, the use of optical measurements to monitor electrochemical changes on the surface of nanosized metal particles is discussed within the Drude model, and the absorption spectrum of a metal sol in water is shown to be strongly affected by cathodic or anodic polarization, chemisorption, metal adatom deposition, and alloying.
