  1. Untangling energy dependent radiation damping and chemical interface damping in gold nanorods

    Brasel, Sadie NicoleRice University2024

    … practical applications. Specifically, radiation damping and chemical interface damping are crucial in plasmonic sensing and plasmon-enhanced optoelectronics. However, in systems where it is desirable to study both radiation and chemical interface damping, these terms can become entangled due to …
