44 Dimer vs. Single Sphere Single sphere Improvement over single sphere is about a factor of 2~3. For absorption and emission ( E 2 ), additional factor of ~10. For SERS ( E 4 ), an additional factor of ~100. Appl. Phys. Lett. 97, (2010)

47 Best of Both Worlds The effective mode volume of the nanolens is only slightly greater than that of the small sphere. The radiative decay rate of the nanolens is slightly smaller than that of the large sphere.
