| Abstract |
In this paper, we explain in detail the wavelength dependence of the elastic scattering pattern of individual, optically isolated gold nanorods by using confocal microscopy in combination with higher order laser modes, i.e., radially/azimuthally polarized laser modes. We demonstrate that the spectral dependence of the scattering pattern is mostly caused by the relative strength of the gold nanorods' plasmonic modes at different wavelengths. Since the gold nanorods' plasmonic modes are determined by the particles' geometrical parameter, e.g., size and aspect ratio, as well as the refractive index of the surrounding medium, we show that the spectral dependence of the scattering pattern is a simple, not invasive way to determine, e.g., the gold nanorod aspect ratio or physical variation of the local environment. Thus, a further development of spectral imaging of gold nanorods can lead to the employment of this technique in biomedical assays involving also living samples. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 26 September 2016.
All research outputs
#22,759,802
of 25,374,917 outputs
Outputs from Analytical & Bioanalytical Chemistry
#7,542
of 9,619 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#241,090
of 279,975 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Analytical & Bioanalytical Chemistry
#102
of 174 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,917 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 9,619 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.1. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 279,975 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 174 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 1st percentile – i.e., 1% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
