It covers the properties of coupled metal nanoparticles, the nonlinear optical response of metal nanoparticles, and the phenomena that arise when light-emitting materials are coupled to metal nanoparticles. It also provides an overview of key potential applications and offers explanations of computational and experimental techniques giving readers a solid grounding in the field.\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eAcknowledgments ix  \u003cp\u003eIntroduction xi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eI.1 Why All the Excitement? xi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eI.2 Historical Perspective xiv\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eI.3 Book Outline xvii\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e1 Modeling: Understanding Metal-Nanoparticle Plasmons 1\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.1 Classical Picture: Solutions of Maxwell’s Equations 2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.2 Discrete Plasmon Resonances in Particles 13\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.3 Overview of Numerical Methods 25\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.4 A Model System: Gold Nanorods 31\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e1.5 Size-Dependent Effects in Small Particles 39\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 46\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e2 Making: Synthesis and Fabrication of Metal Nanoparticles 51\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.1 Top-Down: Lithography 52\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.2 Bottom-Up: Colloidal Synthesis 67\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.3 Self-Assembly and Hybrid Methods 76\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e2.4 Chemical Assembly 86\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 92\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e3 Measuring: Characterization of Plasmons in Metal Nanoparticles 97\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.1 Ensemble Optical Measurements 97\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.2 Single-Particle Optical Measurements 102\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3.3 Electron Microscopy 125\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 132\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e4 Coupled Plasmons in Metal Nanoparticles 135\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.1 Pairs of Metal Nanoparticles 136\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4.2 Understanding Complex Nanostructures Using Coupled Plasmons 149\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 161\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e5 Nonlinear Optical Response of Metal Nanoparticles 165\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.1 Review of Optical Nonlinearities 166\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.2 Time-Resolved Spectroscopy 170\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e5.3 Harmonic Generation 187\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 191\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e6 Coupling Plasmons in Metal Nanoparticles to Emitters 193\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.1 Plasmon-Modified Emission 193\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e6.2 Plasmon–Emitter Interactions Beyond Emission Enhancement 210\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 225\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e7 Some Potential Applications of Plasmonic Metal Nanoparticles 229\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.1 Refractive-Index Sensing and Molecular Detection 229\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.2 Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering 233\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.3 Near-Field Microscopy, Photolithography, and Data Storage 239\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.4 Photodetectors and Solar Cells 242\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.5 Optical Tweezers 249\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e7.6 Optical Metamaterials 254\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 266\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 271\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eSubject Areas: Mechanical engineering \u0026amp; materials [\u003ca title=\"See our other books on Mechanical engineering \u0026amp; materials\" href=\"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/search?q=%22Mechanical%20engineering%20\u0026amp;%20materials%20%5BTG%5D%22\"\u003eTG\u003c\/a\u003e]\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52417750040856,"sku":"9781118060407","price":90.95,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0730\/2037\/5320\/files\/9781118060407.jpg?v=1784506413","url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/introduction-to-metal-nanoparticle-plasmonics-hardback-9781118060407","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
