@article{10902/27952, year = {2010}, url = {https://hdl.handle.net/10902/27952}, abstract = {We present a numerical study of the spectral evolution of the linear polarization degree at right-angle scattering configuration (PL(90º)) for two different particle systems: an isolated nanosphere and a nanodimer composed of two finite size spherical particles separated by a gap distance d. We shall focus on the influence of charge oscillation modes other than the dipolar on the linear polarization degree of the scattered light. The possibility of using this alternative parameter for characterizing nanoparticle systems and particle interaction is analyzed.}, organization = {We acknowledge financial support from USAITCA (US Army International Technology Center—Atlantic) under the project R&D1390-PH-01 and from the Ministry of Education of Spain under the project FIS2007-60158.}, publisher = {Institute of Physics}, publisher = {New Journal of Physics, 2010, 12, 103031}, title = {Spectral behavior of the linear polarization degree at right-angle scattering configuration for nanoparticle systems}, author = {Setién, B. and Albella Echave, Pablo and Saiz Vega, José María and González Fernández, Francisco and Moreno Gracia, Fernando}, }
