Abstract
The optical emission response of a single nano-emitter coupled with a plasmonicnanorod dimer is investigated, where the short and long nanorods in the dimer support dipolar and quadrupolar plasmon resonance, repsectively. Fano resonances are observed with a nano-emitter being placed at either apex of the dimer. However, no Fano resonance is seen when the nano-emitter is placed in the gap of the dimer. Bonding and antibonding dipolar-quadrupolar plasmon couplings are closely related to the Fano resonances in this dimer system.This publication has 31 references indexed in Scilit:
