Description
Plasmonic antennas are often fabricated by lithographic patterning of a thin metallic film and its properties are then intimately related to the quality of the resulting structures. Here we compare two kinds of thin gold films: polycrystalline thin film deposited by magnetron sputtering, and chemically synthesized monocrystalline gold platelet. Both metallic substrates were used to fabricate plasmonic nanorods using focused ion beam lithography. The resulting nanorods were characterized by scanning transmission electron microscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy.
