Absorption spectra and electric field distributions of butterfly wing scale models coated with a metal film studied by finite-difference time-domain method

Inspired by alternative hybrid-biophotonic structures and modern computational electromagnetics in plasmonics, herein, we attempted to understand the plasmonic properties of a metal film (gold or palladium) on the surface features of butterfly wing scales, as they might represent the dominant featur...
