摘要
By scanning near-field optical microscopy, we measured the localization of the electromagnetic field on an array of gold nanodisks illuminated in a transmission mode. We experimentally observed that the field is localized between the disks, with a pattern oriented along the incident polarization direction. We also observed that the electromagnetic field rapidly decays above the nanodisks, showing a strong vertical localization. The experimental results are in good agreement with numerical simulations performed by a finite difference time domain method. This study provides quantitative information about the local optical properties of closely-packed nanodisks that can be used for applications in biochemical sensors and nanolithography.
