  • Abstract
    We consider the effect of gold nanospheres of subwavelength dimension on the energy transfer rates and efficiencies between donor-acceptor pairs placed near the nanospheres. We investigate theoretically the effect of the donor-Au NP and acceptor-Au NP separation on the energy transfer rates and efficiencies and the influence of the spectral overlap of the donor emission with the localised surface plasmon resonance.
