| Summary: | Silver nanobars have attracted much attention due to their distinctive localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in the visible and near-infrared regions. In this work, large-size Ag nanobars (length: 400~1360 nm) working at a longer-wavelength near-infrared range (>1000 nm) have been synthesized. By using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation, the LSPR properties of a single large-size Ag nanobar are systematically investigated. The LSPR in Ag nanobar can be flexibly tuned in a wide wavelength range (400~2000 nm) by changing the bar length or etching the bar in the length direction. Our work provides a flexible way to fabricate nanoparticle arrays using large-size nanobars and throws light on the applications of large-size nanomaterials on wide spectral absorbers, LSPR-based sensors and nanofilters.
