Plasmonic excitations in tight-binding nanostructures
We explore the collective electromagnetic response in atomic clusters of various sizes and geometries. Our aim is to understand, and hence to control, their dielectric response based on a fully quantum-mechanical description which captures accurately their relevant collective modes. The electronic energy levels and wave functions, calculated within the tight-binding model, are used to determine...
متن کاملSilicon carbide nanostructures: a tight binding approach.
A tight-binding model Hamiltonian is newly parametrized for silicon carbide based on fits to a database of energy points calculated within the density functional theory approach of the electronic energy surfaces of nanoclusters and the total energy of bulk 3C and 2H polytypes at different densities. This TB model includes s and p angular momentum symmetries with nonorthogonal atomic basis funct...
متن کاملExtended Hückel tight-binding approach to electronic excitations.
In this work, we propose the application of a self-consistent extended Huckel tight-binding (EHTB) method in the computation of the absorption optical spectrum of molecules within the linear response time dependent density functional formalism. The EHTB approach is presented as an approximation to the Kohn-Sham energy functional. The method is applied to the computation of excitation energies a...
متن کاملChiral Plasmonic Nanostructures
Noble-metal nanoparticles (NPs) occupy the top drawer in the toolbox of scientists working with optical materials. These NPs confine light in extremely small volumes, and their individual scattering properties can be designed virtually at will by shaping and arranging the NPs carefully. When their behaviour is considered collectively, the NPs can also be used as building blocks (meta-atoms or m...
متن کاملOptical interactions in plasmonic nanostructures
We present a review of plasmonic nanostructures in which the constituent materials are coupled together by optical interactions. The review first provides a comprehensive coverage of theoretical framework where the optical interactions are described by the multiple scattering among the nanostructures. We then discuss the two limiting cases of weak and strong interactions. The weak interaction r...
