Abstract

Metallic nanoparticles can self-assemble into highly ordered superclusters for potential applications in optics and catalysis. Here, using first-principles quantum mechanical calculations, we investigate plasmon coupling in superclusters made of aluminum nanoparticles. More specifically, we study/compare the plasmon coupling in close-pack FCC (face-centered-cubic) and non-close-pack BCC (body-centered-cubic) superclusters. We demonstrate that the optical properties of these clusters can be fine-tuned with respect to the packing arrangement. As a key result of this work, plasmon coupling is found to be enhanced (diminished) in FCC (BCC) superclusters due to constructive (destructive) plasmon coupling. Our quantum calculations would help in the design of Al-based superclusters beneficial for plasmonics applications.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
