Abstract
Optical and vibrational properties of novel self-assembled silver nanocolumns are studied experimentally and theoretically. The split of the surface plasmon resonance into transverse and longitudinal modes verifies the one-dimensional character of the nanocolumns. In this work, we have identified the acoustic vibration modes of the nanocolumns using Raman scattering, as spheroid-like modes (l = 2, m = +/-2) involving vibrations of the nanocolumns along their minor axes and the existence of surface plasmon-vibration coupling mechanisms.
