Abstract :
FEM-RBCI method is applied to the analysis of the scattering of time-harmonic electromagnetic waves at optical frequencies from systems of several metallic nanoparticles, exhibiting a ring shape. Plasmons are taken into account by modelling the metallic material by means of appropriate complex permittivities. System of circular nanorings are studied.
