Dye-doped spheres with plasmonic semi-shells: Lasing modes and scattering at realistic gain levels

We numerically simulate the compensation of absorption, the near-field enhancement as well as the differential far-field scattering cross section for dye-doped polystyrene spheres (radius 195 nm), which are half-covered by a silver layer of 10–40 nm thickness. Such silver capped spheres are interest...
