Abstract
The effect of diffractive coupling on the collective plasmon line shape of linear arrays of Ag nanoparticles fabricated by electron beam lithography has been investigated using Rayleigh scattering spectroscopy. The array spectra exhibit an intricate multi-peak structure, including a narrow mode that gains strength for interparticle distances that are close to the single particle resonance wavelength. A version of the discrete dipole approximation method provides an excellent qualitative description of the observed behavior.
