Plasmonic Resonance

Plasmonic resonance refers to the collective oscillation of free electrons in metallic nanostructures that interact strongly with light, resulting in dramatic enhancements of electric fields, absorption, and scattering. First discovered by Kretschmann and Raether in 1968, plasmonic resonance is now central to nanophotonics, enabling applications from biosensing to photothermal therapy and advanced optical devices with subwavelength control.
