    Author: Chen J, Shen Q, Chen Z, Wang Q, Tang C, Wang Z.
    Journal: J Chem Phys; 2012 Jun 07; 136(21):214703. PubMed ID: 22697562.
    Abstract:
    In this study, we first numerically investigate the appearance and properties of multiple Fano resonances in two-dimensional hexagonal non-close-packed arrays of symmetric metallic shells. The coexistence of broad sphere-like plasmon modes formed from the near-field interaction between the individual sphere plasmons and substantially narrower void plasmon modes supported by the inner surface of the individual shell resonant over the same range of energies can produce such Fano resonances. In particular, void and sphere-like plasmon modes of different angular momentum could directly interact without the need of symmetry breaking in the structure. A cost-effective colloidal crystal templating method is utilized to prepare the arrays of the metallic shells with small openings. The effect of the symmetry breaking on the Fano resonances in metallic cup arrays is experimentally and numerically investigated. Further tunability on the Fano resonances is gained by changing the size of the inner dielectric core, hence changing the moment of the void plasmon modes and consequently the resonance frequency. By adopting the polymer dielectric core with gain materials, our study may offer realizable experimental opportunities towards subwavelength low threshold plasmonic lasing.
