To verify this quadrupole-dipole transform mechanism brought about by shape-engineered nanostructures, we numerically calculated the surface charge distributions induced in the nanostructures and their associated far-field radiation based on a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) electromagnetic simulator (Poyntingfor Optics, a product of Fujitsu, Japan). Figure 2.4a schematically represents the design... [Pg.66]

The inter-particle distance dependence of the near-field coupling would therefore reflect the distance decay of the near-field itself. In other words, each particle senses the near-field due to the other particle. By varying the distance of the other particle and monitoring the LSPR response, the spatial profile of the near-field can be deduced. The plot of the LSPR red-shift as a function of inter-particle gap (surface-to-surface separation) shows a much more rapid decay of the near-field than predicted by the dipolar model. This is because the dipolar model does not take into account the multipolar interactions between the particles, which become increasingly important at smaller and smaller inter-particle gaps. Plasmon coupling is therefore a multipolar interaction and its true distance-dependence can be quantitatively reproduced only by a complete treatment that includes all modes of interaction (dipolar, quadrupolar, octupolar). Computational electrodynamics methods such as discrete dipole approximation (DDA) (see Chapter 2) and finite-difference-time-domain (FDTD), which include a full multipolar treatment in addition to finite-size retardation effects, fit experimental trends well. [Pg.278]

A mean field theory has recently been developed to describe polymer blend confined in a thin film (Sect. 3.2.1). This theory includes both surface fields exerted by two external interfaces bounding thin film. A clear picture of this situation is obtained within a Cahn plot, topologically equivalent to the profile s phase portrait d( >/dz vs < >. It predicts two equilibrium morphologies for blends with separated coexisting phases a bilayer structure for antisymmetric surfaces (each attracting different blend component, Fig. 32) and two-dimensional domains for symmetric surfaces (Fig. 31), both observed [94,114,115,117] experimentally. Four finite size effects are predicted by the theory and observed in pioneer experiments [92,121,130,172,220] (see Sect. 3.2.2) focused on (i) surface segregation (ii) the shape of an intrinsic bilayer profile (iii) coexistence conditions (iv) interfacial width. The size effects (i)-(iii) are closely related, while (i) and (ii) are expected to occur for film thickness D smaller than 6-10 times the value of the intrinsic (mean field) interfacial width w. This cross-over D/w ratio is an approximate evaluation, as the exact value depends strongly on the... [Pg.78]
