11 Metallic nanorod as a / optical antenna In analogy to a / radiowave antenna, we call a nanosized rod-like metallic structure a / optical antenna. L=/ YES BUT, it is just similar, and not equal because of plasmons
12 Bulk plasmons A plasmon is a collective oscillation of the conduction electrons Bulk plasmon: The rigid displacement of the electrons induces a dipolar moment and an electric field opposing the displacement Electron density (t): (t) E(t) d nme () t ene() t 4 n e () t => dt Harmonic oscillator p 4 e n e m e All the electrons are involved in the oscillation. The energy of those oscillations in typical metals might be triggered out by external probes.

19 Small sphere The electric fields inside (E 1 ) and outside (E ) the sphere can be obtained from the scalar potentials E1 1 with r,, 1 0 Solve Lapace equation in spherical coordinates: E with 0 scatter 0 Boundary conditions: 1 1 ( r a ) 1 1 r r ( r a) continuity of the tangential electric fields continuity of the normal component of the electric displacement
20 Small sphere Homogeneous electric field along x-direction: 0 E0x E0r cos The following potentials satisfy the Laplace equation and boundary conditions: From E we obtain The field is independent of the azimuth angle which is a result of the symetry implied by the direction of the applied electric field.
21 Small sphere Small sphere: Dipole: E r cos E dipole 0 p cos 4 r a cos r The field outside the sphere is the superposition of the applied field and the field of an ideal dipole at the sphere origin The dipole moment is given by p a E 0 1 Generally the dipole moment is defined by p 0 E 0 Polarizability of the sphere: 3 4a 1 1
22 Small sphere We can describe the light scattering of a small sphere by plane wave scattering at an ideal point dipole with dipole moment derived on the previous slides.

24 Optical cross sections of small spheres Integrating the Poynting vector S sca (S abs ) over a close spherical surface we obtain the totally scattered (absorbed) power P sca (P abs ) from which we can calculate the scattering (absorption) cross section C sca = P sca /I i (C abs = P abs /I i ): Scattering cross section: Absorption cross section: C sca 8 3 k4 a 6 m m k4 6 C abs 3 m 4ka Im m k Im C sca 6 a 4 C abs 3 a - stronger scattering at shorter wavelength (Rayleigh scattering, blue sky) - for large particle extinction is dominated by scattering whereas for small particles it is associated with absorption - scattering of single particles <10nm is difficult to measure (low signal/noise and low signal/background)
