Perturbations of Dipole Decay Dynamics Induced by Plasmonic Nano-antennas – A Study within the Discrete Dipole Approximation

Perturbations of Dipole Decay Dynamics Induced by Plasmonic Nano-antennas – A Study within the Discrete Dipole Approximation

We report a discrete dipole approximation approach to analyse the perturbations induced by silver nano-particles on the decay dynamics of a point-like emitter placed in their proximity. Due to the excitation of localized surface plasmons, metallic nano-particles behave like optical antennas and are...
