Towards an optical far-field measurement of higher-order multipole contributions to the scattering response of nanoparticles (1411.4808v1)
Published 18 Nov 2014 in physics.optics
Abstract: We experimentally show an all-optical multipolar decomposition of the lowest-order Eigenmodes of a single gold nanoprism using azimuthally and radially polarized cylindrical vector beams. By scanning the particle through these tailored field distributions, the multipolar character of the Eigenmodes gets encoded into 2D-scanning intensity maps even for higher-order contributions to the Eigenmode that are too weak to be discerned in the direct far-field scattering response. This method enables a detailed optical mode analysis of individual nanoparticles.
