Abstract:A hot-spot of high local field can be created in between two closely placed metal nanoparticles by irradiating them with an appropriate wavelength and polarization of incident light. The strength of the field at the hot-spot is expected to get enhanced by even up to six orders of magnitude than that of the applied field.Placing a semiconductor quantum dot or an analyte molecule at the hot-spot is an essential step towards harnessing the enhanced field for applications. In this article, we show that it is possi… Show more
