Long-range interaction in regular metallic nanostructure arrays can provide the possibility to manipulate their optical properties, governed by the excitation of localized surface plasmon (LSP) resonances. When assembling the nanoparticles in an array, interactions between nanoparticles can result in a strong electromagnetic coupling for specific grating constants. Such a grating effect leads to narrow LSP peaks due to the emergence of new radiative orders in the plane of the substrate, and thus, an important improvement of the intensity of the local electric field.

Site-selective surface functionalization of anisotropic gold nanoparticles represents a major breakthrough for fully exploiting nanoparticle anisotropy. In this paper, we explore an original strategy for the regioselective functionalization of lithographically designed gold nanorods (AuNRs), based a combination of photo-induced plasmon excitation and aryl diazonium salt chemistry.
