Abstract
Notice of Retraction
After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE´s Publication Principles.
We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.
The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting TPII@ieee.org.
We study the scattering of light by nanoegg dimers using a computational scheme that allows for the efficient simulation nanoegg dimers. Nanoegg dimers exhibit high field enhancements and field focusing owing to the broken symmetry in the geometry of nanoeggs, in addition to higher tunability than symmetric nanoparticle dimers. We utilize the quasistatic approximation combined with translation relations of spherical harmonic function that allows easier transition between different coordinates systems making the scattering problem easier to solve. We use this scheme to study the two dominant resonance modes in a nanoegg dimer: the dipole and the quadrupole modes.
