Plasmonic Properties and Optical Activity of a Three-Dimensional Six-Blade Windmill Nanostructure

  • Published:
Journal of Applied Spectroscopy Aims and scope

Two exchangeable LSPR modes with different coupling field are observed in calculating magnetic field intensity in accordance with adjusting geometrical parameters. Compared with planar nanostructures, three-dimensional windmills show stronger optical activity, and the maximum value of the asymmetry g-factor was 0.6. The numerical simulation results in this paper also contain the optimal geometrical parameters to achieve the best circular dichroism effect at different resonance modes. The results give a contribution to the design of novel chiral optical nanostructures.
