Interactions of Organic Fluorophores with Plasmonic Surface Lattice Resonances
… aluminum films in electric lamps, including car headlights, where reflecting the light out with minimal light loss due to absorption is key to their function. Of course, in all of these cases, the resistance to surface oxidation (especially for gold) or, for silver, the discovery that it could be …
