In recent years we have shown that certain metallic nanoparticles possess plasmon resonances that depend very sensitively on the shape of the nanostructure. This interesting observation has led to a fundamentally new understanding of plasmon resonances of metallic nanostructures- "Plasmon Hybridization" - where the collective electronic resonances in a metallic nanostructure is rigorously analogous to the single electron quantum states of simple atoms and molecules. The Plasmon hybridization pic...
