Reflection and Absorption Spectra of Silver Nanocubes on a Dielectric Substrate: Anisotropy, Angle, and Polarization Dependencies
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Angle and polarization dependent UV–visible reflection and transmission spectra were measured for monolayers of weakly interacting silver nanocubes (of 40 and 80 nm edge lengths) supported by thin films of titanium oxide on glass utilizing both front and rear geometries with respect to the incident radiation. The supporting substrate mediates the hybridization of dipolar and quadrupolar plasmon resonances. From the spectra absolute extinction and absorption cross sections for supported silver nanocubes were determined. A strong angle dependence of the extinction and reflection spectra for p- but not s-polarized light was observed. This dependence is considerably more pronounced for the hybridized quadrupolar resonance of the 40 nm cubes. When illuminated from the rear, a significantly stronger absorption of light by the dipolar but not the quadrupolar resonance occurs for both cube sizes. Such absorption anisotropy could result from the wavelength dependent constructive or destructive interference between incident and scattered light from the nanocubes. This study demonstrates the impact of a dielectric substrate on the optical properties of novel plasmonic materials.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
