Abstract
Noble metallic nanoparticle exhibits unique optical properties in visible to near infrared band when its localized surface plasmon resonance is excited. For example a sharp absorption peak at 509nm for a gold nanoparticle at the diameter of 60nm. The plasmonic properties heavily depend on its geometrical structure. In this paper, we theoretically calculate the optical properties of a single nanoparticle with different structure such as solid and core-shell. The simulation results show that the core-shell structure can reach a much broader tunable band and in which the shell thickness plays a dominant role. Further by employing a core-shell pair, more flexible properties can be reached.
