We establish the concept of a plasmonic polymer, whose collective optical properties depend on the repeat unit. Experimental and theoretical analyses of the super- and sub- radiant plasmon response of plasmonic polymers comprising repeat units of single nanoparticles or dimers of gold nanoparticles show that (1) the redshift of the lowest energy coupled mode becomes minimal as the chain approaches the infinite chain limit at a length of ∼10 particles, (2) the presence and energy of the modes are sensitive to the geometries of the constituents, that is, repeat unit, but (3) spatial disorder and nanoparticle heterogeneity have only small effects on the super-radiant mode.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 15. 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 29 May 2018.
All research outputs
#2,786,617
of 31,266,886 outputs
Outputs from Nano Letters
#1,872
of 15,972 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#15,574
of 196,041 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Nano Letters
#35
of 179 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 31,266,886 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done particularly well and is in the 90th percentile: it's in the top 10% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 15,972 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 10.4. This one has done well, scoring higher than 87% of its peers.
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 196,041 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done particularly well, scoring higher than 91% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 179 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has done well, scoring higher than 78% of its contemporaries.
