This review provides a broad overview of the studies and effects of nonlocal response in
metallic nanostructures. In particular, we thoroughly present the nonlocal hydrodynamic …

In 1978 it was discovered, largely through the work of Fleischmann, Van Duyne, Creighton,
and their coworkers that molecules adsorbed on specially prepared silver surfaces produce …

We describe special silver nanoparticle array structures that lead to exceptionally large
electromagnetic field enhancements (| E| 2> 107) at specific locations in the structure, thus …

The nanoscale confinement and coupling of electromagnetic radiation into plexcitonic
modes has drawn immense interest because of the innovative possibilities for their …

We review the physical processes occuring when solid surfaces are used to modify, in a
substantial way, the spectroscopic properties of molecules located nearby. This is achieved …

This review provides a brief introduction to the physics of coupled exciton-plasmon systems,
the theoretical description and experimental manifestation of such phenomena, followed by …

To understand the electrodynamics of mesoscopic media it is in general necessary to take
into account local-field effects. This article presents a review of the role played by local fields …

We analyze the impact of nonlocality on the waveguide modes of metallodielectric
multilayers and optical patch antennas, the latter formed from metal strips closely spaced …

We study the importance of an often-overlooked aspect of surface-enhanced fluorescence
(SEF): the spectral profile modification (SPM) that should accompany any plasmon …

A theoretical analysis of the framework for near-field microscopy based on a microscopic
description of the interaction between the dielectric probe and the surface is presented. The …
