Impact of the discrete meshes on calculations of the optical responses of the gold nanodisk. (a) A schematic of a gold nanostructure of diameter D = 90 nm, height H = 30 nm, and lattice constant L = 350 nm. (b) Reflection, transmission, and absorption spectra of the gold nanodisk with circularly polarized incident light. Schematics of the discretization of the problem space using (c) non-MSM, (d) partially non-MSM, and (e) MSM schemes and their corresponding numerical artifacts, CDmesh, in (f–h), respectively.
