Photochemical synthesis and optical properties of silver nanodecahedra

We report the simulation of silver nanodecahedra using a discrete dipole approximation method. This approach has never before been done on the decahedron shape due to the difficulty in generating the target geometry. The accuracy of the simulation method is verified against the Mie theory method. A...
